- INCI Name
- Brassicamidopropyl Dimethylamine
ProCondition™ 22 is a natural-derived sustainable conditioning. It is a non-quat, cationically charged hair conditioning agent and emulsifier. As a hair conditioning agent, it has comparable performance to behentrimonium chloride (BTAC). As a primary emulsifier, it builds formulation stability by the formation of lamellar liquid crystals.

- Science Behind
ProCondition™ 22 is an amidoamine with a unique C18 - C22 fatty acyl composition.; The amine functionality is cationically charged below pH 6.5. The cationic group binds to anionically charged hair fibers. The C18 - C22 tail group provides lubricity and conditioning benefits.; In emulsions, ProCondition™ 22 forms lamellar liquid crystals (LLCs) when combined with fatty alcohol. These structures can stabilize high oil loads and provide a soft, powdery and non-greasy feel.
