General description

Dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride is a quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) commonly used as a cationic surfactant.[1] It is used in antimicrobial sanitizers due to its surface activity and germicidal efficiency.[2]

Application

  • Polyethylene terephthalate depolymerization: Dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride was applied in the enzymatic depolymerization of polyethylene terephthalate, illustrating its utility in enhancing the efficiency of plastic degradation processes (Kawai et al., 2022).
