Benzalkonium chloride, also known as ADBAC, Benzolkonium chloride, or Alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride, among other synonyms, is a chemical compound with the CAS numbers 8001-54-5 and 63449-41-2.
ADBAC has the molecular formula C17H30ClN and the molar mass 283.88. It is a light yellow liquid with an aromatic smell and a pH of 6.5~7. It dissolves in water and has good foam and chemical stability. It can resist heat, light, and evaporation. It has various functions, such as sterilization, inhibition of bacteria, emulsification, antistatic, softening, and conditioning.
Benzalkonium chloride is mainly used as a bactericide, an antistatic agent, a levelling agent, a stabilizer, and a disinfectant in various industries, such as food processing, medicine, textile, oilfield, petrochemical, water treatment, and public facilities. It can also improve the dyeing performance of acrylic fibers and cationic dyes. It can also prevent corrosion and bacterial growth in chemical equipment and oil field water.
Benzalkonium chloride has low toxicity but high corrosion and irritation. It should be handled with care and stored in a cool and dry place. It should be avoided to contact with skin, eyes, and strong alkalis.
