| Synonyms | Docosyltrimethylammonium methyl sulphate |
| Description | Behentrimonium Methosulfate (BTMS) is a quaternary ammonium compound commonly used in hair care products as a conditioning agent. It is derived from rapeseed oil or other vegetable sources, making it a natural and sustainable alternative to synthetic ingredients. BTMS works by effectively penetrating the hair shaft and coating it with a protective film, which helps to detangle the hair, reduce frizz, and improve overall manageability. It can also help to reduce static electricity in the hair and improve its luster and shine. In addition to its conditioning properties, BTMS is also a mild antimicrobial agent, which can help to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi in hair care products. Because it is a naturally derived ingredient, it is generally well tolerated by most skin types and has low toxicity. |
