Abstract: A material and method for treating timber. The material comprises a preservative and a carrier. The carrier is selected such that it remains mobile within the wood and provides for migration of the preservative within the treated wood. By providing a carrier which is mobile within the wood, the timber has a ‘self healing’ effect wherein the carrier/preservative migrates to any freshly cut or exposed surface of the wood to thereby redistribute and treat such a surface within the preservative and hence maintain integrity of a treatment envelope surrounding the wood.

Abstract: A composition consisting of the reaction product of a halogenated carboxylic acid, an amine, and optionally a fatty acid. The composition has biocidal properties and enhances pigment dispersibility.

Abstract: A method of dyeing and treating a substrate using a water-stabilized organosilane. A method of antimicrobially treating a food article. A method of antimicrobially coating a fluid container. A method of antimicrobially coating a latex medical article.

Abstract: A physical and chemical mixture of aggregative material, chemical products, mineral fillers and/or special pigments in dispersion, with metallic effect, designed to be added to aqueous-phase paint products having a monochromatic-flocculate or multichromatic-flocculate base (known among decorative paint products by the trade name of aqueous-phase Multicolor, Antiche Terre Fiorentine and/or the like), or aqueous-phase paint products without flocculate components (known among decorative paint products by the trade name of Arteacqua glazings and/or the like) in order to obtain a newly devised single-colour and multicolour mural-coating decorative paint product both, with and without metallized effect, which can be applied using a spatula, paintbrush, glove and/or roller or the like, and a process for the production thereof.

Abstract: Liquid compositions consisting essentially of by weight, 0.1-50% IPBC in 99.9-50% polyethylene glycol, polypropylene glycol or polypropylene glycol glyceryl ester, or mixtures thereof, which do not contribute to the VOC of paints and coatings and is stabilized effectively against discoloration even at elevated temperatures or direct sunlight.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an aqueous formulation containing phenol and/or phenol derivatives having a low freezing point and anti-microbial activity.

Abstract: Treatment and preservation of wood, wood fiber products, and porous surfaces with a solution of periodic acid or iodic acid is provided.

Abstract: The present application relates to the use of combinations of active compounds composed of phenolic active compounds and azole compounds for the preservation of animal hides and leather.

Abstract: The present invention provides a composition comprising an amine oxide and an iodine containing biocide. Another embodiment of the present invention is a method for preserving and/or waterproofing a wood substrate by contacting the composition with the wood substrate.

Abstract: A composition consisting of the reaction product of a halogenated carboxylic acid, an amine, and optionally a fatty acid. The composition has biocidal properties and enhances pigment dispersibility.
