Usage

Definition

ChEBI: A quaternary ammonium salt derived from hexamethylenetetramine; used as a preservative in many cosmetics and industrial substances. Also acts as a disinfectant and allergenic agent.

Reactivity Profile

1-(3-CHLOROALLYL)-3,5,7-TRIAZA-1-AZONIAADAMANTANE CHLORIDE is basic. May react with strong reducing agents to give flammable gases. Possible vigorous combination with strong oxidizing agents.

Fire Hazard

Flash point data are not available for 1-(3-CHLOROALLYL)-3,5,7-TRIAZA-1-AZONIAADAMANTANE CHLORIDE, but 1-(3-CHLOROALLYL)-3,5,7-TRIAZA-1-AZONIAADAMANTANE CHLORIDE is probably combustible.

Contact allergens

Quaternium-15 is a quaternary ammonium compound, used as a broad-spectrum formaldehyde-releasing bactericide agent. It is contained as a preservative in cosmetics, toiletries, and aqueous products. Allergy is mainly due to formaldehyde and not to Quaternium-15 itself. Occupational case reports concerned hairdressers, a beautician, an engineer working on the maintenance of machinery in a chicken processing plant, and an employee carrying out photocopying tasks.

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion. Moderately toxic by skin contact. Experimental teratogenic effects. A skin irritant. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of NOx and Cl-
