Proxel® BZ Plus Preservative, an aqueous dispersion of a blend of 1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one & zinc 2-pyridine-thiol-1-oxide, is an antibacterial/anti-fungal preservative for aqueous compositions such as latex emulsions, paints, water-based adhesives, aqueous slurries such as titanium dioxide and clay, and tape joint compounds. Proxel BZ Plus Preservative is registered with the Environmental Protection Agency and has been granted EPA registration No. 1258-1326.

Many aqueous industrial compositions can support the growth of a wide range of bacteria and fungi. These organisms can chemically destroy the components of these formulations and render them unusable. High solids formulations are especially prone to fungal contamination and cannot be suitably controlled by bactericides. Proxel BZ Plus Preservative is effective against both types of microbes and will prevent growth of even high concentrations of fungal organisms. Proxel BZ Plus Preservative, which contains active agents that have two very different modes of action, is particularly effective in preserving a wide range of industrial aqueous based products from bacterial and fungal spoilage.
