PROXEL 101 is a broad spectrum preservative that provides protection against spoilage from bacteria, yeasts and fungi. It is a formulation of a blend of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (CMIT) and 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MIT). PROXEL 101 is effective in polymer emulsions, paints, adhesives, and pigment dispersions. It has a non-specific mode of action which means that bacterial resistance is very unlikely to occur. PROXEL 101 is suitable for applications that require long term stability and protection from microbial degradation. It can help extend the shelf life of products and prevent defects caused by microbial growth.
