Product Overview
Polyquaternium 10 (often called"Polyquat 10"or"PQ-10") is a cationic polymer derived from hydroxyethyl cellulose, prized for its positive charge that strongly binds to negatively charged hair and skin. Its primary function is conditioning, where it smooths the cuticle, reduces static, detangles, and imparts a soft, manageable feel without heaviness. Polyquaternium 10 also acts as a film-former for light hold and a viscosity modifier. Due to its clarity and excellent salt tolerance, it's a versatile ingredient widely applied in clear shampoos, conditioners (both rinse-off and leave-in), body washes, and light styling products, enhancing texture and performance across personal care formulations.
