BKC 80 (Benzalkonium Chloride 80%) is a high-purity quaternary ammonium compound (quat) used as a broad-spectrum antimicrobial, preservative, and surfactant in personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial cleaning formulations. As an aqueous solution (5% solution pH 6.0–8.0), BKC 80 delivers potent bactericidal, fungicidal, and algicidal activity at low usage concentrations — making it one of the most effective and widely used antimicrobial agents in the personal care and surface disinfection industries.
Applications:
- Personal Care Preservation (antimicrobial preservative in shampoos, conditioners, body washes)
- Wound Care & Antiseptics (topical antiseptic formulations, wound cleaning solutions)
- Surface Disinfection (hospital-grade disinfectants, sanitisers, antimicrobial cleaning products)
- Ophthalmic Products (eye drop preservative at very low concentrations)
Key Features & Benefits:
- Aqueous solution, 5% pH 6.0–8.0 – stable, high-purity BKC formulation
- Broad-spectrum bactericidal, fungicidal, and algicidal activity
- Effective at very low usage concentrations in personal care formulations
- Widely accepted preservative in personal care regulatory frameworks
- Suitable for personal care, pharmaceutical, and industrial applications
