Abstract: The invention relates to a process for preparing 1,2?-benzisothiazoline-3-one according to formula (I), comprising the following steps: (a) reacting a 2-halogenbenzonitrile compound of general formula (II) with a reaction mixture, containing: (i) alkaline sulphide and/or alkaline hydrogen sulphide and (ii) an alkyl halide compound, represented by general formula (III): R1X (III) for producing an intermediate product of general formula (IV), and (b) reacting the intermediate product of general formula (V) obtained in step (a) with a halogenating agent or an oxidant and subsequent reaction of the 2-(alkylsulfoxy)benzonitrile with an acid to form 1,2-benzisothiazoline-3-one as well as a halide compound of general formula (V) R1X (V).

Abstract: The invention relates to an aqueous dispersion comprising the following components: (a) 25 to 60 wt. % of 3-iodo-2-propynyl butyl carbamate (IPBC), (b) 0.05 to 5 wt. % of at least one compound selected from the group consisting of methyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydrophobically modified hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxyethyl methyl cellulose and carboxymethyl cellulose, or mixtures of two or more of these, (c) 1 to 10 wt. % of at least one block copolymer based on ethylene oxide and propylene oxide, having a numerically defined average molecular weight of between 1,000 g/mol and 15,000 g/mol, (d) 0.1 to 10 wt. % of at least one thickener and/or anti-settling agent, and (e) up to 100 wt. % of water, in each case based on the total aqueous dispersion. The invention further relates to the use of this dispersion for the protection of technical materials from attack and/or destruction by microorganisms.
