Description

Transfluthrin is a highly effective synthetic pyrethroid insecticide known for its rapid knockdown effect and low mammalian toxicity. Its primary value lies in its exceptional vapor action, making it a key active ingredient in space-spray applications where immediate control of flying insects is required. This compound is essential for manufacturers and formulators in the public health and consumer goods sectors, particularly for producing mosquito coils, vaporizer mats, aerosol sprays, and other indoor insect control products.

Application

• Active ingredient in mosquito coils and vaporizer mats for indoor and outdoor use.
• Formulation of aerosol space sprays for rapid knockdown of flies, mosquitoes, and other flying insects.
• Use in electric liquid vaporizers for continuous indoor insect control.
• Manufacturing of insecticidal papers and strips for domestic and commercial settings.
• Component in public health programs for vector control to combat mosquito-borne diseases.
• Treatment of textiles and materials for long-lasting insect repellency.

Quality Control

Our Transfluthrin is manufactured under strict quality management systems to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. The product is tested against rigorous internal specifications, which typically include assay, identification, and impurity profiling. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your formulation requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be opaque or stored in darkness. As the material is easily oxidized, consider storage under an inert atmosphere for long-term holding of bulk quantities.
