Biocides for Metalworking Fluid Isothiazolinones CMIT/MIT CAS 26172-55-4/2682-20-4

Application: 

Biocides CMIT/MIT is widely used in various industries, including personal care products, paints and coatings, adhesives, water-based metalworking fluid and industrial water treatment. It is effective against a broad spectrum of microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and algae.

1. In personal care products, biocides CMIT/MIT acts as a preservative to prevent the growth of bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms that can cause product spoilage and degradation. It helps maintain the safety and shelf life of products such as shampoos, lotions, and household cleaners.
2. In paints, coatings, and adhesives, biocides CMIT/MIT is added to prevent microbial growth, ensuring the quality and longevity of these products.
3. Biocides CMIT/MIT is also used in industrial water treatment applications, such as cooling towers, to control microbial contamination and inhibit the growth of biofilms.
4.  Biocides CMIT/MIT widely used in water-based metalworking fluid.

Storage Notes: Sealed stored in cold, dry, good ventilated place, avoid high temperature and moist.

Advantages and dosage: Biocides CMIT/MIT for metalworking fluid

 Effectively kills bacteria, molds, and yeasts. The general addition amount is 100-200 ppm.

Isothiazolinone-based biocides: In aqueous metalworking fluids, the general dosage is 0.1% – 0.3% (mass fraction).

What should be considered when you choose the right biocides for metalworking fluid?

Compatibility with metalworking fluids: Ensure that the biocides does not have adverse reactions with other components in the processing fluid, resulting in a decline in the performance of the processing fluid.

Spectrum and efficacy of sterilization: According to actual needs, select a biocides that has a good inhibitory and killing effect on common microorganisms.
Applicable pH range: It should match the pH range of the metalworking fluid.
Safety: Including the health impact on operators and the friendliness to the environment.

Stability: Be able to maintain the stability of the active ingredients during storage and use.

Regulatory compliance: Select products that comply with relevant laws and regulations.
