The Uses of 2,3-Epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride

Reagent used for synthesis and antimicrobial activity of a water soluble chitosan derivative with a fiber-reactive group.

The Uses of 2,3-Epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride

Glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride be used as a derivatizing agent to synthesize N-(2-hydroxypropyl)-3-trimethylammonium chitosan chloride (HTCC), a water-soluble chitosan derivative, by reacting with chitosan. HTCC can form nanocomposite films with silver nanoparticles that show good antimicrobial property and optical transparency. Cationic starches can also be prepared by derivatization of starch with GTMAC.

General Description

Glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTMAC) is a cationizing agent commonly used for starch modification.

Contact allergens

Used in the production of cationic starch for the paper industry; EPTMAC caused contact dermatitis in workers.
