MAQUAT CS 445C is a 50% active didecyldimethyl ammonium carbonate/bicarbonate in a water/methanol solution, for use in EPA unregistered applications.

Cationic surfactants have a multitude of uses. MAQUAT CS 445C is a unique quaternary ammonium compound that does not contain metal corroding halogens such as chloride or bromide. CS 445C is manufactured from a renewable resource alkyl amine derived from coconut oil and dimethyl carbonate, a biodegradable "green reagent."

Use MAQUAT CS 445C as a non-corrosive cationic emulsifier in Marine Coatings, a bio-mass dispersant with unique solubility parameters in Oil Field applications. Mix CS 445C with weak organic acids to enhance performance in aqueous or non-aqueous systems through an in-situ replacement of the counter-ion. The unique hard water tolerance of MAQUAT CS 445C imparts differentiated performance in formulated aqueous products.

While MAQUAT CS 445C is slightly toxic orally, it causes severe skin and extreme eye irritation. As with all chemicals, use with care and caution. Avoid contact with eyes and skin, and use eye protection (goggles), gloves and protective clothing.
