Carpronium Chloride

Synonyms: (3-Carboxypropyl)trimethylammonium chloride, 4-(Trimethylammonio)butanoate, Carpronium chloride, 13254-33-6, (3-Carboxypropyl)trimethylammonium chloride inner salt, 4-Trimethylammoniobutanoate

Carpronium chloride is the quaternary ammonium compound 4-(trimethylammonio)butanoate, supplied as a white crystalline powder with an assay of 99.0% or higher by HPLC. It is a synthetic small molecule, not a botanical extract, and is produced under controlled conditions to meet pharmaceutical and cosmetic grade requirements.

Purchasing this material usually means you are formulating a topical product where a stable, water-soluble active is needed. The compound is hygroscopic and should be stored in a cool, dry place away from moisture. It is freely soluble in water and ethanol, which makes it straightforward to incorporate into aqueous gels, lotions, and serums. The commercial specification is built around HPLC purity, and we ship against a COA that reports the actual batch value.

Grade & Supply Forms

We routinely supply Carpronium Chloride in pharmaceutical and cosmetic grades. The pharmaceutical grade is tested to 99.0% minimum by HPLC, with the balance being residual water and trace impurities. The cosmetic grade follows the same purity profile but is released against cosmetic monograph requirements. Both grades are delivered as a fine white powder in sealed containers.

Applications & Formulation Use

Formulators use Carpronium Chloride in topical gels, creams, and hair care products where a water-soluble active is required. In hair tonics and scalp treatments, it is incorporated into aqueous-based formulas, often alongside other actives. In skincare, it appears in light lotions and serums, where its solubility allows for clear or translucent formulations. The compound is also used in some transdermal gel systems, where its ionic nature can be managed with appropriate excipients.
