PROMEX™ TZ is used as a preservative in a number of different industrial applications where broad spectrum activity and relatively short contact times are required. Provision of free formaldehyde can confer “head space” protection when used as an in can preservative. Experience shows that compatibility with most products and raw materials is excellent, although compatibility testing is recommended for special formulations. Use level: under normal use patterns concentrations of 0.1 - 0.3 % are sufficient in most applications.
