- ▸ Hair conditioning: pre-emulsified amino-silicone system for rinse-off and leave-in conditioners
- ▸ Detangling and softening: cationic surfactant plus silicone deposition
- ▸ Formulation convenience: cold-processable conditioning concentrate
A grade-specific Safety Data Sheet (SDS) — with the complete hazard classification, handling precautions, and transport information — is supplied with every shipment and available on request. Confirm all safety and regulatory details against the SDS for your specific grade.
Request SDS →A blend (CAS 68955-53-3) of amodimethicone (amino-silicone), cetrimonium chloride (cationic surfactant), and trideceth-12 (nonionic emulsifier), supplied as a ready-to-use conditioning emulsion. Cetrimonium chloride is documented in PubChem as a hair conditioner/softener and cationic surfactant; the system delivers amino-silicone conditioning to hair-care formulations.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is amodimethicone, cetrimonium chloride, trideceth-12 used for?
This is a ready-to-use conditioning emulsion blending amodimethicone (amino-silicone), cetrimonium chloride (cationic surfactant), and trideceth-12 (nonionic emulsifier), supplied as a cold-processable concentrate for hair-care formulations. It delivers amino-silicone conditioning, detangling, and softening to rinse-off and leave-in conditioners. CAS 68955-53-3.
What does each component in the blend do?
Amodimethicone is the amino-silicone conditioning agent that deposits on hair, cetrimonium chloride is a cationic surfactant documented in PubChem as a hair conditioner/softener that aids detangling, and trideceth-12 is a nonionic emulsifier that keeps the silicone stably dispersed. Together they form a pre-emulsified conditioning system. The blend simplifies formulation by pre-combining these functions.
Why use a pre-emulsified amodimethicone blend instead of neat amodimethicone?
The blend is supplied as a stable, cold-processable conditioning emulsion, so formulators avoid the difficulty of emulsifying neat amino-silicone in-house and can meter it directly into water-based systems. This delivers consistent silicone deposition with formulation convenience. Confirm the active silicone content on the product specification.
What is the CAS number of this conditioning blend?
This conditioning emulsion is referenced under CAS 68955-53-3 and combines amodimethicone, cetrimonium chloride, and trideceth-12. It is supplied as a ready-to-use concentrate for personal-care formulation. Component identities and the specification are documented on the CoA.
How is this amodimethicone blend packaged in bulk and priced?
It is supplied in pails, drums, totes, and bulk to manufacturers and formulators. Pricing depends on active content, volume, and packaging, so request a bulk quote rather than a list price. The SDS and CoA accompany the quote.
