grotan® BA 21

grotan® BA 21 is an aqueous formulation comprising 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3(2H)-one (BIT) and bis(3-aminopropyl)dodecylamin (BDA), offering a synergistic blend effective in cationic and non-ionic systems. While providing a broad, balanced spectrum of effect against bacteria, yeasts, and molds, it demonstrates enhanced efficacy, particularly against pseudomonas sp. Effective even in very low concentrations, it ensures comprehensive microbial control. However, caution is advised in the presence of anionic substances, which may reduce efficacy. While foaming is possible, grotan® BA 21 is fully soluble in water, ensuring ease of use. It serves as an indispensable preservative for various manufactured products, ensuring prolonged shelf life, and as a slimicide, preventing slime growth on industrial materials and equipment. Additionally, it functions as a reliable preservative for working or cutting fluids, preserving fluid integrity in metalworking processes.

Product Applications

Preservatives for products during storage

  • Products used for the preservation of manufactured products, other than foodstuffs, feedingstuffs, cosmetics or medicinal products or medical devices by the control of microbial deterioration to ensure their shelf life.
  • Products used as preservatives for the storage or use of rodenticide, insecticide or other baits.

Slimicides

  • Products used for the prevention or control of slime growth on materials, equipment and structures, used in industrial processes, e.g. on wood and paper pulp, porous sand strata in oil extraction.

Working or Cutting Fluid Preservatives

  • Products to control microbial deterioration in fluids used for working or cutting metal, glass or other materials.
