Other names: PQ-10 polymer, PQ10 compound, cellulose

Harm score: 3 (Harmless chemicals)


Polyquaternium-10 (PQ-10) is also known as PQ-10 polymer, PQ10 compound or cellulose. It is a quaternary ammonium salt skeleton derived from cellulose, which is the collective name for a group of organic compounds found in plants. PQ-10 has very good binding properties and the ability to form layers on the surface of hair and skin cells. This is used in the manufacture of various cosmetic and personal care products.

It is mainly used in hair care, where it gives the hair a silky shine, increases its smoothness and makes it easier to comb. PQ-10 is added to shampoos, conditioners, serums and other hair care products. In addition, it can also be found in some body care products, such as shower gels or body creams, where it improves their consistency and distribution on the skin. Polyquaternium-10 is popular for its low toxicity and good skin tolerability. In addition, it is flexible and resistant to degradation, allowing it to provide a longer duration of action. If found in certain washing products, it can also act as an anti-static agent.

Polyquaternium-10 can be found in the following products
