Benzalkonium Chloride (abbreviated as BK/BAC), also named alkyldimethylbenzylammonium chloride, belongs to quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) family. It is a high-performance cationic surfactant and broad-spectrum non-oxidative biocide, widely recognised globally for reliable antimicrobial performance.
Chemically, BKC is a mixture of alkylbenzyldimethylammonium chlorides. It can electrostatically attach to negatively charged microbial cell membranes, disrupt lipid structures and trigger cell lysis. It delivers strong inhibition and killing effect against Gram-positive bacteria, Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, algae and enveloped viruses. Featuring stable performance within pH 4–11, low corrosivity, excellent water solubility and surfactant properties, it serves as an indispensable raw material for disinfection, preservation and cleaning formulations worldwide.

As a professional supplier of Benzalkonium Chloride based in Dalian, we support flexible customisation to match diverse formulation requirements of global manufacturers.
We adjust the proportion of C12, C14, C16 alkyl chains on demand. Different carbon chain distributions bring differentiated bactericidal efficiency, foam performance and formulation compatibility. Customers can select standard mixed chains or tailor-made single/mixed chain ratios targeting specific application scenarios.
Standard grades include 50%, 80% active solutions. We can configure variable concentrations as requested. Solvent options cover aqueous systems, ethanol, isopropanol mixed solvents and other carriers to avoid gelation, improve fluidity and satisfy different formula compatibility demands.
Strict lab testing for active content, pH, colour, free amine and alkyl chain distribution. Every batch comes with complete COA documents for your quality control and registration.
Our technical team provides formulation guidance, application recommendation and storage advice to help customers optimise end-product performance.
