BTMS-50 is 50% active Behenyl (C22) quaternary conditioning agent and cationic emulsifier provided in pastille form.

BTMS-50, or Behentrimonium Methosulfate (and) Cetyl Alcohol (and) Butylene Glycol, is a conditioning emulsifier commonly utilised in the formulation of hair care and skincare products. It shares similarities with BTMS-25, with the additional component of cetyl alcohol and butylene glycol.

The inclusion of butylene glycol enhances the product's emollient and thickening properties, contributing to a luxurious and creamy texture in formulations. Butylene glycol acts as a co-emulsifier and humectant, helping to attract and retain moisture, which is particularly beneficial for skin and hair hydration. These combined characteristics make BTMS-50 an excellent choice for creating rich and moisturising formulations, such as hair conditioners, masks, and body creams.


Benefits:

Excellent Conditioning: BTMS-50 imparts excellent conditioning properties, making it highly effective in hair care products such as conditioners and masks. It helps to detangle hair, reduce frizz, and improve overall manageability.

Emulsification: As an emulsifier, BTMS-50 is adept at creating stable oil-in-water emulsions. This makes it suitable for formulating creams, lotions, and other emulsion-based skincare products.

Softening and Smoothing: The cetyl alcohol component in BTMS-50 contributes to a soft and smooth feel when applied to the skin or hair, enhancing the sensory experience of the formulated product.

Moisturisation: Butylene Glycol, a component in BTMS-50, acts as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture. This property makes it beneficial for skincare formulations designed to provide hydration and prevent dryness.
