Overview of Behentrimonium Methosulphate
Behentrimonium Methosulphate (BTMS) is a cationic conditioning agent and emulsifier widely used in hair care, skin care, and personal care formulations. Known for its excellent detangling, conditioning, and softening properties, BTMS improves hair manageability and enhances the texture of creams and lotions without leaving a greasy feel.
Its CAS number is 17301-53-0, and it is typically supplied as a solid, waxy or flaked material that is easy to melt and incorporate into oil-in-water emulsions. BTMS is often combined with other conditioning or emollient ingredients such as Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Glycerin, and Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride for optimal performance in hair and skin care products.
