About

A quaternary ammonium salt used for its antistatic and conditioning properties in cosmetic formulations.

Diallylammonium succinate is a quaternary ammonium compound where two allyl groups are attached to nitrogen along with a succinate counterion. This structure provides substantivity to skin and hair. Quaternary ammonium compounds are widely used as conditioning agents. While some QACs have sensitization potential, the diallyl subclass is considered less sensitizing than traditional alkyl QACs. No EU Annex restrictions specifically apply to this compound.
