| Quaternium-15 Usage And Synthesis |
Uses | 1-??(3-??Chloroallyl)??-??1,??3,??5,??7-??tetraazaadamantan-??1-??ium Chloride is a surfactant acting as a formaldehyde-releaser in cosmetics. Potential formaldehyde-related contact allergy.Environmental toxin on US EPA Toxic Release Inventory list (TRI) list. | Definition | ChEBI: A quaternary ammonium salt derived from hexamethylenetetramine; used as a preservative in many cosmetics and industrial substances. Also acts as a disinfectant and allergenic agent. | General Description | Cream-colored powder. | Air & Water Reactions | Dust may form an explosive mixture in air. Water soluble. | Reactivity Profile | 1-(3-CHLOROALLYL)-3,5,7-TRIAZA-1-AZONIAADAMANTANE CHLORIDE is basic. May react with strong reducing agents to give flammable gases. Possible vigorous combination with strong oxidizing agents. | Fire Hazard | Flash point data are not available for 1-(3-CHLOROALLYL)-3,5,7-TRIAZA-1-AZONIAADAMANTANE CHLORIDE, but 1-(3-CHLOROALLYL)-3,5,7-TRIAZA-1-AZONIAADAMANTANE CHLORIDE is probably combustible. | Contact allergens | Quaternium-15 is a quaternary ammonium compound,
used as a broad-spectrum formaldehyde-releasing
bactericide agent. It is contained as a preservative in
cosmetics, toiletries, and aqueous products. Allergy is
mainly due to formaldehyde and not to Quaternium-15
itself. Occupational case reports concerned hairdressers,
a beautician, an engineer working on the maintenance
of machinery in a chicken processing plant, and
an employee carrying out photocopying tasks. | Safety Profile | Poison by ingestion.
Moderately toxic by skin contact.
Experimental teratogenic effects. A skin
irritant. Mutation data reported. When
heated to decomposition it emits toxic
fumes of NOx and Cl- |
