Accoquat® 622-90 is a diamidoethyl (hydroxyethyl) ammonium methosulfate quaternary in an isopropyl alcohol (IPA) solvent. It has low volatile organic carbons and is produced from natural/vegetable-based soybean oil sources, thus making it ideal for use in consumer and I&I green-renewable formulations. It is used in finishing and drying process of textiles because it reduces the effects of exposure of ozone from the atmosphere. Accoquat 622-90 is dispersible in warm water (>35°C), and with its easy-to-handle high solids, low odor and no solvent smell it provides excellent softening while imparting anti-static properties to fabrics. It gives a low degree of yellowing to fabric even at higher drying temperatures. Accoquat 622-90 is notably good in its re-wet properties for fabrics compared to most other fabric softener concentrates, dramatically reducing the tendencies for “waterproofing” fabrics at higher softener dosage levels, a common problem with many other softeners/debonders currently in the market. It is manufactured in USA.
