General description

Benzyldimethylhexadecylammonium chloride is a cationic surfactant.

Application

Benzyldimethylhexadecylammonium chloride has been used in a study to assess the removal of cationic surfactants from aqueous solutions using activated carbon cloth (ACC). It has also been used in a study to investigate the prototropic behavior of the dye, 7-hydroxy-4-methylcoumarin (7H4MC).
