- Formulation Recommendations
- Readily soluble in aqueous phase, as well as in polar organic solvents
- Reducing agents, amines and strong nucleophiles will reduce activity of MCI/MI
- When used with amines, pH should be below 6 before addition
- Surfactants should be checked for residual bisulfite before addition
- Should be added during the cool down phase of processing, at temperature of 50°C or below
- pH: 3–9
