Structural Formula:

 

 

 

2-methyl-4-thiazoline-3-ketone         5-chloro- methyl-4-thiazoline-3-ketone

Properties:

CMIT/MIT is composed of 5-chloro-2-methyl-4-thiazoline-3-ketone (CMI) and 2-methyl-4-thiazoline-3-ketone (MI). The bactericidal effect of CMIT/MIT is carried out through breaking the bond between bacteria and algae protein. When contacted with microbes, CMIT/MIT can quickly inhibit their growth, then leading to death of these microbes.

CMIT/MIT is a kind of broad spectrum, high efficiency, low toxicity, non-oxidative biocide. 

CMIT/MIT has strong inhibition and biocidal effects on ordinary bacteria, fungi and alga. It has many advantages such as high-efficiency, good degradation, no residual, safety in operation, great compatibleness, good stabilization, low cost and so on. It can mix with chlorine and most cation, anion, and non-ionic surfactants. When used at high dosage, its effect on biosludge stripping is excellent.

      Specification:

Notes: 2%, 4% and 8% or any concentration can be supplied on demands.

 

Usage:

CMIT/MIT is the ideal biocidal in industrial circulating cool water system and in wastewater treatment in oilfield, papermaking, pesticide, cutting oil, leather, detergent and cosmetics etc.

When used as sludge stripper for grade II, the dosage of 150-300mg/L is preferred, when used as boicide, the dosage of 80-100mg/L is preferred, and charges every 3-7 days. No used together with oxidative fungicidal such as chlorine, and no used in cooling water system containing sulfur.

When used together with quaternary amine, the effect will be better. When used as industrial fungicide, the dosage of 0.05-0.4% is preferred. 

Package and Storage:

Liquid: Normally in 200L HDPE drum, 1000L IBC, or customers’ requirement.

Storage for ten months in shady room and dry place.

 

Safety Protection:

Corrosive, Avoid contact with eye and skin, Wear splash resistant safety goggles and rubber glores.once contacted, flush with water.
