DANOX HC-30
TYPICAL PROPERTIES
APPLICATION PROPERTIES
DANOX HC-30 is a ready to use conditioning system which incorporates the Cationic Surfactant
Base and the Cetearyl Alcohol together. This allows an easier handling as well as a single step
formulation.
DANOX HC-30 is based on a synergistic combination of cationic surfactants and fatty alcohol that
allows single-step formulation providing an excellent performance in hair conditioning formulations.
Additionally, it presents an outstanding eco-toxicological profile, better than traditional cationic
surfactants.
Recommended dosage for DANOX HC-30 is between 2.5% (e.g. to prepare a Serum) and 12%
® ®
(e.g. to prepare a Hair Mask) of DANOX HC-30. If less than 2.5% of DANOX HC-30 is used, the
®
addition of a viscosity builder is recommended. If more than 12% of DANOX HC-30 is added, the
addition of a hydrotrope is recommended.
DANOX HC-30 can be processed either at high and low temperature. The use of regular process
of dispersion at high temperature, at around 75ºC, provides final conditioners with an excellent
performance, especially for damaged hair. Optionally, this conditioning system can be processed
at low temperature (25ºC) obtaining a dispersion that will provide proper conditioning results.
DANOX HC-30 performs as antistatic, softener and conditioner in hair rinse formulations and can
be used to formulate hair conditioners and hair masks.
DANOX HC-30 is chemically stable for a long period of time under appropriate storage
conditions (temperature of 25ºC and original unopened container).
Keep protected from air and humidity. Due to its hygroscopic properties it is advisable to maintain
the packaging well closed to avoid water adsorption or solvent evaporation.
The shelf life of DANOX HC-30 can be considered of 1 year minimum under proper storage
conditions. After longer storage time some of its characterising parameters (odour, appearance,
colour, pH …), should be checked before using it.
Storage temperature must be always below 40ºC.
