  • Method of preparing a copper complex for use as an algaecide
    Patent number: 4324578
    Abstract: A method of preparing a copper complex to be used in eliminating the growth of aquatic or marine plant life, such as algae. The copper complex is formed by reacting finely divided water-insoluble copper carbonate with the combination of monoethanolamine and triethanolamine. The copper compound is completely solubilized and complexed by the combination to provide a copper complex having improved stability and containing an increased amount of elemental copper as compared to copper complexes formed by prior methods, thereby making the complex more effective as an algaecide.
