VANQUISH 100 Antimicrobial
VANQUISH 100 Antimicrobial
VANQUISH 100 Antimicrobial provides effective control of a wide range of bacterial, fungal, and algal organisms thereby preventing degradation of the product. It can protect the surface of substrates and prevents objectionable odors and aesthetic problems such as staining, or growth on or in the substrate. VANQUISH 100 Antimicrobial is easy to use due to its liquid form and excellent compatibility in most systems. It is based on the novel active agent N-Butyl-1, 2-benzisothiazolin-3-one (BBIT).
VANQUISHâ„¢ 100 Antimicrobial is used for the protection of natural rubber and plastic products made from such polymers as polyvinylchloride, polyurethane, silicone, polyolefins, polyester (and others). It can also be used to prevent microbial spoilage of a variety of polymers including XPU systems.
Microbial degradation of XPU can destroy your products and your reputation! Without an effective antimicrobial, your products can become brittle and cracked and generate unpleasant smells as the micro-organisms metabolize. VANQUISH 100 antimicrobial prevents fungal growth on XPU products and provides long-lasting protection.
Features & Benefits
- Broad-spectrum antimicrobial
- BBIT is a purely organic active ingredient and does not pose a heavy metal risk to the environment, i.e. arsenic and tin free
- Stable in XPU systems
- Controls XPU spoilage organisms
- No impact on mechanical properties of finished XPU articles
- High strength mobile liquid form – easily diluted in most organic liquids and can be incorporated directly into the reacting polymer system, the polyol mixture or the isocyanate prepolymer precursors.
- Long term storage stability in polyols or prepolymer system
