Description

Degmicide CAS NO 69597-41-7 is a high-performance, broad-spectrum antimicrobial agent belonging to the isothiazolinone class of biocides. It is engineered to provide effective and reliable microbial control in challenging industrial water systems and process environments. This product is essential for manufacturers and facility managers in sectors such as water treatment, pulp & paper, metalworking fluids, and paints & coatings who require robust protection against bacteria, fungi, and algae to ensure system integrity and product quality.

Application

• Industrial Water Treatment: Primary biocide for cooling towers, recirculating cooling water systems, and process water to prevent biofouling and microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC).
• Pulp & Paper Production: Preservation of process waters, starch solutions, and coatings to inhibit slime formation and maintain production efficiency.
• Metalworking Fluids: In-can and in-use preservative for synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids to extend fluid life and prevent spoilage.
• Paints & Coatings: In-can preservative for water-based formulations to protect against microbial degradation during storage.
• Oilfield Applications: Used in drilling muds, fracturing fluids, and produced water treatment to control sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and other problematic microorganisms.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Preservation of water-based adhesive and sealant products to ensure shelf-life stability.
• Leather Processing: Biocide in soaking, tanning, and dyeing baths to prevent microbial damage to hides.
• Household & Institutional Cleaners: Preservation of liquid detergents and cleaning formulations.

Quality Control

Our Degmicide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for active content, purity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters are provided with each shipment. Our production and quality processes are designed to support compliance with relevant global regulatory frameworks, including REACH and regional biocidal product regulations.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at temperatures between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Containers should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent contamination and minimize exposure to moisture.
