The global Polyquaternium 10 market size is expected to reach $ 98 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 8.0% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Polyquaternium-10 is a water-soluble polymer derived from hydroxyethylcellulose, a cellulose-based substance that undergoes quaternization to form a cationic polymer. It belongs to the family of polyquaterniums, which are widely used in personal care and cosmetic formulations due to their conditioning, film-forming, and thickening properties. The "10" in its name represents its specific chemical structure and functionality within this family of polymers.
Polyquaternium-10 is particularly known for its ability to bond with negatively charged surfaces, such as hair and skin, due to its cationic (positively charged) nature. This interaction helps improve the appearance, texture, and manageability of hair and provides a soft and moisturized feel to the skin. It is commonly used in shampoos, conditioners, body washes, and other personal care products to enhance product performance by reducing static electricity, improving combability, and offering a smooth finish.
In addition to its cosmetic applications, Polyquaternium-10 is valued for its safety profile, biodegradability, and compatibility with various surfactants and active ingredients. It is available in different grades, allowing manufacturers to customize its viscosity, molecular weight, and charge density for specific formulations.
Rising consumer spending on beauty and personal care products, especially in developing regions, has increased demand for high-performance ingredients like Polyquaternium-10.
The global focus on hair health and styling, coupled with the prevalence of hair damage due to pollution and heat styling, has driven the need for conditioning agents such as Polyquaternium-10.
Consumers increasingly prefer eco-friendly and biodegradable products, positioning Polyquaternium-10 as a favored ingredient due to its cellulose-derived origin.
Advances in formulation science have enabled the use of Polyquaternium-10 in multifunctional products, such as 2-in-1 shampoos and micellar cleansers, broadening its application scope.
Global core polyquaternium-10 players include Dow, KCI and Guangzhou Tinci Materials Technology etc. The top 3 companies hold a share about 60%. Europe is the largest market with a share about 30%, followed by China and Japan. In terms of product, viscosity≥500cps type is the largest segment with a share about 75%. And in terms of applications, the largest application is hair care with a share about 85%.
