Poison by intraperitoneal and intravenous routes. Moderately toxic by ingestion. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx.
Benzethonium Chloride Monohydrate(CAS NO.5929-09-9) is a thin hexagonal plates. It is hygroscopic and it may be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Also it is slightly water soluble. It is incompatible with soap and anionic detergents.
It is a synthetic quaternary ammonium salt. This compound is an odorless white solid; soluble in water. It has surfactant, antiseptic, and anti-infective properties. It is also found in cosmetics and toiletries such as mouthwashes (disguised as grapefruit seed extract; see below), anti-itch ointments, and antibacterial moist towelettes. It is unapproved in the USA and Europe as a food additive ingredient. In Switzerland it is classified as a class-2 poison. In addition to its highly effective antimicrobial activity, it contains a positively charged nitrogen atom covalently bonded to four carbon atoms. This positive charge attracts it to the skin and hair. This contributes to a soft, powdery afterfeel on the skin and hair, as well as long-lasting persistent activity against microorganisms.
