BKC (Benzalkonium Chloride)
Efficient, Dual-Action Biocide and Disinfectant
Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) is a widely used quaternary ammonium compound (Quat) that serves as both a biocide and surfactant, providing effective control against bacteria, fungi, algae, and certain viruses. Its unique dual action—antimicrobial activity combined with detergent-like properties—makes it highly versatile for water treatment, industrial, and hygiene applications. At Chakadola Enterprises, we deliver high-quality BKC formulations tailored for consistent performance and safety.
