Cationic reagent is an aqueous solution of 3-chloro-2-hydroxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride, which is used in the preparation of cationic starch from native starch.Its chemical name is N- (3- chloro -2- hydroxypropyl) N, N, N three methyl ammonium chloride (CTA)
This cationic starch modification is commonly used in paper production, providing surface sizing, retention, drainage aids, and other enhancements. The ability of these cationic reagents to react with the substrate molecules makes them useful for controlling the selectivity and reactivity of desired products.  

The strong electron-withdrawing effects of the reagents at their acidic sites result in enhanced product formation or activation.  

Our cationic reagents offer unique advantages such as regioselectivity, enhanced activity/selectivity toward substrates, and increased reaction yields that allow chemists to easily tweak reaction conditions to optimise results. 

Application area

1) paper industry

Mainly as a liquid cationic etherifying agent, widely used in fiber, cellulose derivatives and starch modified; as paper internal application of adhesive, filler and fine fiber interception of additives.

(2) textile industry

Liquid cationic etherifying agent react whit cotton fiber,improve the dye binding; reacts with starch obtained cationic starch, as the sizing agent.

(3) water treatment industry

Suspended matters in water is negatively charged, react whit liquid cationic etherifying agent,produce  cationic polymer as flocculants are widely used in water purification.

(4) chemical industry for daily use

The reaction of aqueous cationic etherifying agent create cationic guar gum are important chemicals.
