Benzyltributylammonium chloride typically appears as white crystals or powder and remains fairly stable under standard environmental conditions. It exhibits some hygroscopicity and is somewhat sensitive to humidity. As such, it is important to ensure proper moisture-proofing during storage and use.

Benzyltributylammonium chloride is used:
As a hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) in the creation of new deep eutectic solvents (DESs) in combination with common hydrogen bond donors.
As a cationic surfactant to investigate interactions with anionic dyes, such as indigo carmine (IC) and amaranth (Amr), using the conductometric method.
