Benzalkonium Chloride also known as Alkyl Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride is a Quarternary Ammonium Compound with exceptional microbial properties when used as a disinfectant sanitizer, deodorant, germicide and algicide.
Benzalkonium has many uses in various fields. Polykonium is a unique combination of Benzalkonium Chloride and Nonyl Phenol Ethoxylate (non-ionic detergent) Nonyl Phenol Ethoxylate increases the dispersion of Benzalkonium Chloride as well as its effectiveness against most commonly found bacteria. Nonyl Phenol Ethoxylate also increases the detergent properties of Benzalkonium Chloride. This powerful combination makes Polykonium a very potent and effective germicidal and antiseptic solution
