Biocides and Preservatives
1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one ( BIT ) is a biocide and preservative in a wide range of products, including paints, adhesives, detergents, metalworking fluids, and industrial cooling water systems. It helps inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and algae, thus extending the shelf life and maintaining the quality of these products.
Paper Industry
BIT is a microbiocide to control the growth of microorganisms in the paper industry that can degrade paper products during production and storage.
Adhesives and Sealants
In adhesives and sealants , BIT prevents microbial contamination, ensuring the integrity and performance of these products over time.
Paints and Coatings
BIT is a material in water-based paints and coatings to inhibit the growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria on painted surfaces. This is especially important in environments where humidity and moisture are present.
Cooling Water Treatment
In industrial processes that use water for cooling, BIT can be added to control microbial growth and prevent biofouling in cooling water systems. This helps maintain the efficiency of heat exchange equipment.
Metalworking Fluids
In metalworking processes, such as cutting and grinding, water-based metalworking fluids are used. BIT helps prevent microbial growth in these fluids, extending their usability and preventing the formation of odors and corrosion.
