What is BTMS?

BTMS (Behentrimonium Methosulfate) is a mild cationic conditioning emulsifier widely used in hair care and cosmetic formulations.

Although it contains the word “methosulfate”, BTMS is not a sulfate cleansing surfactant. It is a conditioning ingredient that helps improve hair feel by depositing positively charged conditioning molecules onto the negatively charged surface of hair fibers.

BTMS helps formulators achieve:

  • Improved hair softness
  • Better wet and dry combability
  • Reduced static electricity
  • Enhanced smoothness
  • Rich creamy texture
  • Stable cosmetic emulsions

Due to its excellent conditioning properties, BTMS has become one of the most popular ingredients for natural hair care products, sulfate-free formulations and clean beauty products.
