The primary active ingredients of these products are cationic surfactants of the n-alkyldimethyl-benzyl ammonium chloride (ADBAC) family. These quaternary ammonium compounds have various length carbon chains and are short-lived in plant systems and the environment because of rapid absorption onto anionic substrates and sediments in natural aquatic ecosystems. They are used for cooling and service water systems.
