Description

Sodiummethylmercuricthioglycollate CAS NO 64048-07-3 is a specialized organomercury compound with a thioglycolate ligand. This chemical is significant for its role as a potent fungicide and bactericide, particularly in industrial preservation applications where microbial control is critical. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the wood treatment, paint, and coatings industries, as well as for research purposes in developing novel biocidal agents.

Application

• Industrial Wood Preservative: Acts as a key fungicidal component in formulations designed to protect lumber, plywood, and other wood products from fungal decay and mold.
• Paint and Coating Additive: Incorporated into paints, stains, and coatings to provide in-can preservation and long-term film protection against microbial growth.
• Research and Development: Serves as a reference standard and active ingredient in the synthesis and testing of new organometallic biocides and pharmaceuticals.
• Material Protection: Used in the treatment of textiles, adhesives, and polymer emulsions to prevent biodeterioration during storage and use.
• Laboratory Reagent: Employed in analytical chemistry and toxicology studies related to mercury speciation and environmental fate.

Quality Control

Our Sodiummethylmercuricthioglycollate is produced and handled under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to verify identity, purity, and consistency. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for assay and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Recommended long-term storage temperature is 2-8°C. Due to its sensitivity, the container must be kept sealed to minimize exposure to air and moisture.
