Product Description
1. Product Propertie
Isothiazolinone is mainly composed of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CMI) and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MI). Isothiazolinones act as biocides by breaking the bonds of bacterial and algal proteins. After contacting with microorganisms, isothiazolinone can rapidly and irreversibly inhibit their growth, thus leading to the death of microbial cells, so it has strong inhibitory and killing effects on common bacteria, fungi and algae. It has high biocidal efficiency and good degradability, and is characterized by no residue, safe operation, good compatibility, strong stability and low cost of use, etc. It can be used with chlorine and most anionic and cationic chemicals. It is miscible with chlorine and most anionic, cationic and nonionic surfactants. At high dose, isothiazolinone has significant effect on biological slime stripping.
2. Usage:
When used as sludge stripper for grade II, the dosage of 150-300mg/L is preferred, when used as boicide, the dosage of 80-100mg/L is preferred, and charges every 3-7 days. No used together with oxidative fungicidal such as chlorine, and no used in cooling water system containing sulfur. When used together with quaternary amine, the effect will be better. When used as industrial fungicide, the dosage of 0.05-0.4% is preferred.
