Dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium Bromide (1227-Br/DDBAB)

CAS 7281-04-1

Dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium Bromide (CAS 7281-04-1) is a high-performance cationic quaternary ammonium compound widely used as a broad-spectrum disinfectant, antiseptic, and industrial biocide. It appears as a slightly yellow to colorless transparent liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor and is freely soluble in water and ethanol. With an active matter content of ≥95%, low free amine and amine salt (≤1.5%), and a pH of 5.0-9.0 (1% aqueous solution), it offers excellent stability and antimicrobial efficacy. It is extensively applied in medical instrument sterilization, skin disinfection, industrial water treatment, oilfield injection, and as a phase transfer catalyst in chemical synthesis.

>> Main Uses

Dodecyldimethylbenzylammonium Bromide (1227-Br/DDBAB, CAS 7281-04-1) is primarily used as a broad-spectrum disinfectant and antiseptic for skin, wounds, and medical instruments, and is commonly found in surgical scrubs and hospital surface disinfectants. In industrial applications, it functions as a non-oxidizing biocide and algicide in cooling water systems, oilfield injection waters, and paper mills to control microbial growth and prevent biofouling. Additionally, it serves as a cationic surfactant and phase transfer catalyst in chemical synthesis, and provides corrosion inhibition and bactericidal protection in oilfield acidizing and stimulation operations.
