A quaternary ammonium conditioning agent with an acetamido group that enhances substantivity to hair and skin, providing durable conditioning effects.

A functionalized quaternary ammonium salt incorporating an acetamidoethyl moiety linked via a propyleneglycol bridge to the quaternary nitrogen. The amide group increases polarity and substantivity to keratin, providing durable conditioning even in rinse-off applications. The existing PubChem score of 72 reflects its status as a moderately studied cosmetic ingredient with some potential for skin sensitization at high concentrations. No specific EU Annex restrictions identified.
