Vinkocide® BIT PE

Vinkocide® BIT PE is a liquid preservative suitable for household and industrial cleaners, detergents, waterborne adhesives, sealants, coatings, and inks. It functions as an anti-microbial agent, biocide, fungicide, and prevents phase separation, gas, and odor build-up. It offers excellent stability, viscosity stability, and chemical stability. It is formaldehyde-free, halogen-free, heavy metal-free, and phenol formaldehyde-free, making it suitable for various substrates like leather and textiles. Additionally, it is non-phenolic and resistant to bacteria, fungi, yeast, and molds, ensuring good long-term efficiency.

Product Applications
  • Vinkocide® BIT PE is used for the preservation of water-containing chemical-technical products, such as detergents and cleaning agents.
  • Products used for the preservation of manufactured products, other than foodstuffs or feeding stuffs, in containers by the control of microbial deterioration to ensure their shelf life.
Application Notes
  • In many cases Vinkocide® BIT PE can be used as the only preservative.
  • Vinkocide® BIT PE is highly suitable for the preservation of a wide variety of aqueous products due to their good properties:
    • good stability at high pH (2 - 10)
    • good stability at high temperatures (max. 60°C)
  • Excellent suitability for the preservation of a wide range of aqueous formulations. Experience has shown that the compatibility with most products is excellent. Especially redox agents or oxidizing
  • Substances can affect the product stability. However, we recommend testing specific formulations for compatibility.
  • Under normal conditions, 0.25 - 1.00% (w/w) is sufficient for most applications. Harmless diskoloration may occur in this use concentration range. In very rare cases, however, a high concentration of metal salts can cause colored metal complexes formation.
