50% Solution of Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) (Alkyl Dimethyl Benzyl Ammonium Chloride)
Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) is a safe, rapid acting bactericide, algaecide and fungicide. Widely used as a combination sanitizer-disinfectant for the hospital, livestock and personal hygiene sectors / sugar and water treatment etc.

 

Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) offers strong detergency & rapid, safe, powerful antimicrobial activity at low ppm

Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) based disinfectants are non-toxic, non-tainting & odour-free.

 

Applications :

Oil & Gas

Pipeline corrosion inhibitor. Prevents formation of sulphurous gases. De-emulsifier/sludge breaker for enhanced oil extraction. 

Manufacture of Detergent-Sanitizers
Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) safely incorporates both microbicidal & detergency properties into products for soil penetration & disinfection, which makes it ideal for formulation of hygiene products for personal hygiene, hospital, livestock and food & dairy use. Benzalkonium chloride has powerful potentiating activity in combination with other anti-microbial agents. 

Pharmaceuticals & Cosmetics
Safety factor of Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) leads to use in various topical and ocular products as a preservative and to optimize emolliency and substantivity.

Food & Beverage Industry
On account of its non-toxic, non-corrosive, non-tainting, non-staining characteristics, Benzalkonium Chloride (BKC) is widely used in the formulation of cleaner-sanitizers for:

Dairy Industry Fisheries,Food Storage Tanks,Slaughter Houses,Bottling Plants,Milk Storage Tanks,Beweries,Catering Industry and Cold Storage Plants.

 

Sodium Dimethyl Dithio Carbamate (SDMDTC)

SDMDTC is also used in the following fields:

• Industrial waste water treatment
• Sugar industry
• Chemical industry
• Heavy metals remover and metal precipitator
• Pulp and paper industry
• Biocide products as fungicide

 

Isothiazolinones is composed of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-thiazoline-3-ketone (CMI) and 2-methyl-4-thiazoline-3-ketone (MI). The bactericidal effect of isothiazolinones is carried out through breaking the bond between bacteria and algae protein. When contacted with microbes, isothiazolinones can quickly inhibit their growth, thus leading to death of these microbes. isothiazolinones has strong inhibition and biocidal effects on ordinary bacteria, fungi and alga, and has many advantages such as high biocidal efficiency, good degradation, no residual, safety in operation, good compatibleness, good stabilization, low cost in operation. Isothiazolinones can mix with chlorine and most cation, anion, and non-ionic surfactants. When used at high dosage, its dislodge stripping effect is excellent. Isothiazolinones is a kind of fungicidal with properties of broad spectrum, high efficiency, low toxicity and non-oxidative, it is the ideal biocidal in industrial circulating cool water system and in waste water treatment in oilfield, paper making, pesticide, cutting oil, leather, detergent and cosmetics etc.
