Abstract: Provided herein are compositions containing at least one surfactant combined with at least one surfactant potentiator. The surfactant is an ethoxylated surfactant. In one aspect, the surfactant is an ethoxylated quaternary tertiary amine. In still another aspect, the surfactant is a mixture of an ethoxylated tertiary amine and an ethoxylated quaternary amine. The composition can be a fabric treatment, such as a laundry detergent.

Abstract: A biocidal composition, comprising an antibacterially effective combination of IPBC, zinc oxide, and bacterial membrane disrupting substances, and a working composition comprising water, one or more organic compounds, and a biocidal composition comprising IPBC, zinc oxide, and a bacterial membrane disrupting substance, effective for wet-state and dry-film preservation of the working composition.

Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to a multifunctional booster composition comprising a polyetheramine and at least one additive comprising an inorganic metal compound, a silicate, a pyrithione salt, or an organic amine, wherein R1 is H or C1 to C9 alkyl, each of R2, R3, and R4 is independently H or CH3, and each of x, y, and z is independently 1 to 10. According to the present disclosure, the weight ratio of the polyetheramine to the additive is from about 1:5 to 100:1.

Abstract: A coating composition is provided for inhibiting growth of fungus and/or algae on a surface. The coating composition includes a dry film preservative and an antibacterial dry-film preservative comprising an immobilized isothiazolin-3-one derivative/zinc oxide complex. The amount of the antibacterial preservative comprising immobilized 1,2-isothiazolin-3-one derivative/zinc oxide complex and the dry film preservative contained in the coating composition is sufficient to inhibit or prevent the defacement of a surface exposed to the environment, when such defacement is due to growth of fungi or algae, or a combination of fungi and algae on a surface coated with said surface coating composition.
