  • Publication number: 20050124674
    Abstract: A biocide composition is disclosed as an additive to substances susceptible to infestation by harmful organisms, containing 2-methylisothiazolin-3-one as a biocidal agent. The composition is characterized in that it contains 3-iodo-2-propynyl-N-butylcarbamate as a farther biocidal agent, with the exception of biocide compositions containing 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazolin-3-one. In comparison to its individual constituents, the composition provided by the invention presents a synergistic biocidal action.

  • Patent number: 6846777
    Abstract: The invention relates to a biocidal composition which can be added to materials which can be attacked by harmful micro-organisms, containing pyrithione as a biocidal active ingredient. The biocidal composition is characterised in that it contains 2-alkyl isothiazoline-3-one as another biocidally active ingredient. The active ingredients of the biocidal composition behave synergistically and are ideally suitable for controlling bacteria, fungus and algae.

  • Publication number: 20040234603
    Abstract: The invention relates to a coating material for protection against microorganisum invasion on surfaces which are exposed to the effects of damp or water. The coating material has either a pH-value of at least 11.0 or is provided with a base material for the coating whereby the pH-value is at least 11.0. The coating material is characterised in that it contains a biocide which bonds to solid particles in a carrier material and is released in a delayed manner therefrom.
