PREVENTOL D7 LT

Product Details

• Preventol® D7 LT is a microbicide containing a mixture of isothiazolinones.
• Preventol® D7 LT is readily incorporated into formulations and is compatible with surfactants and emulsifiers regardless of their ionic nature. Preventol® D7 LT will not adversely affect product physical properties or performance and should not impart odor or color to most final products.
• Preventol® D7 LT can be incorporated at any stage of the production process but is best to add it in the initial stage.
• However, if higher temperatures (>104 °F / 40 °C) , the presence of highly reactive components, or pH values >9 occur during the manufacturing process the product should be added at the end of the processor to the finished product below critical conditions. In this case, take care to distribute the preservative uniformly in order to ensure homogeneous mixture of the product in the water. Since Preventol® D7 LT has a low viscosity, the product can be added directly or pre-dissolved in water.
• The use of the monovalent stabilized Preventol® D7 LT in an aqueous formulation does not generally cause any undesirable stability issues. Even sensitive polymer emulsions, which tend to coagulate when multivalent metal salts are added to the formulation, can be easily preserved with the Preventol® D7 LT.

Typical Applications

For industrial use as a preservative to inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeast in polymer emulsions, photoplate processing, fountain solutions & ink components, metalworking fluids, adhesives, aqueous compositions, and pigment & mineral slurries. Designed for coagulation sensitive products which are sensitive to multivalent salts.

Preventol® D7 LT is compatible with high quality stainless steel. Compatibility tests are recommended for other metallic materials. Plastic materials like, PE, HDPE, and PTFE are compatible and suitable for handling and storage of Preventol® D7 LT.
