Sodium Omadine 2000 Antimicrobial
Sodium Omadine 2000 Antimicrobial
Sodium Omadineâ„¢ 2000 Antimicrobial is a proprietary blend based on the antimicrobial active sodium pyrithione (CAS# 3811-73-2). This product is an efficient antibacterial and antifungal preservative for aqueous compositions such as latex emulsions, paints, waterbased adhesives, aqueous slurries, mineral add mixtures, tape joint compounds, patching compounds, pigment dispersions, aqueousbased inks and colorants.
Sodium Omadine 2000 Antimicrobial is registered for use with the United States Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA Reg. No 1258- 1238) for a variety of industrial use patterns. Additional information can be found on the label.
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. Sodium Omadine Antimicrobial is effective against both types of microbes and will prevent the growth of even high concentrations of fungal organisms.
Sodium Omadine 2000 Antimicrobial effective control of a wide range of organisms at economic concentrations, demonstrates long-term storage stability and compatibility in aqueous-based compositions, and is in an easy to use liquid form. Sodium Omadine 2000 Antimicrobial will perform best in pH aqueous systems ranging from 7.0 to 12.0. It can be used in clear, transparent product systems and will not impart any color or clarity changes to those products.
