About
A collagen-derived conditioning agent with a quaternary ammonium group, used for antistatic effects but carrying some sensitization risk from hydrolyzed proteins.
Triethonium Hydrolyzed Collagen Ethosulfate is a hydrolyzed collagen protein that has been quaternized with triethanolamine and ethyl sulfate. Hydrolyzed proteins carry a theoretical risk of inducing sensitization, particularly when of animal origin, though the risk is considered low at typical cosmetic concentrations. The ingredient is not listed on EU Annex II or III. Ethosulfate (ethyl sulfate) is used as the counterion. The ingredient provides film-forming and conditioning benefits.
Skin benefits
- film-forming protective barrier
- antistatic benefits

Known concerns
