New biocidal formulations based on ortho-phenylphenol
OPP is a classic product that keeps up with the times, containing as it does no adsorbable organic halogen compounds (AOX). It has been registered by Bayer as a biocide all over the world (e.g. with the EPA and FDA and under the BPD) and its toxicological and ecotoxicological properties have been widely investigated. Preventol® O extra is ideal for a large number of applications: it is increasingly replacing biocides such as formaldehyde and their releasers and is an effective alternative to TCMTB and isothiazolinone derivatives in certain applications. OPP is the active ingredient basis for a large number of disinfectants - from heavy-duty applications in hospitals or hygiene in cattle sheds to antiseptics and consumer care products. In addition, it is successfully used for the in-can preservation of glues and adhesives, filler slurries, concrete additives and printing ink thickeners. Last but not least OPP is also an established post-harvest fungicide in the preservation of citrus fruits.
