Bronopol, with the CAS number 52 - 51 - 7, is a well - known preservative and biocide. Our high - quality Bronopol product is offered at a competitive price, ensuring you get the best value for your money. Chemically, it is 2 - Bromo - 2 - nitropropane - 1,3 - diol. It appears as a white to off - white crystalline powder with a characteristic odor.
It has a molecular formula of C₃H₆BrNO₄ and a molecular weight of approximately 200.0 g/mol. The melting point of Bronopol ranges from 126 - 132°C. It is soluble in water, alcohol, and propylene glycol, which makes it highly versatile in various formulations.
Bronopol is widely used in multiple industries due to its excellent antibacterial and antifungal properties. In the cosmetics industry, it is a popular choice as a preservative for creams, lotions, shampoos, and other personal care products. It helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi, extending the shelf - life of the products and ensuring their safety for consumers.
In the industrial water treatment field, Bronopol is used to control the growth of microorganisms in cooling towers, industrial process waters, and water - based metalworking fluids. This helps to prevent biofouling, corrosion, and the spread of water - borne diseases.
It is also utilized in the textile industry as a preservative for textile finishing agents. By inhibiting the growth of microorganisms, it protects the textiles from damage during storage and use.
When using Bronopol in cosmetics, it is typically added to the formulation at a concentration of 0.01% - 0.1%. First, dissolve Bronopol in a small amount of water or a suitable solvent at a temperature below 50°C. Then, slowly add the solution to the cosmetic base under gentle stirring. Make sure the product is well - mixed to ensure uniform distribution of the preservative.
In industrial water treatment, the dosage of Bronopol depends on the specific situation, such as the type of water system, the level of microbial contamination, and the temperature. Generally, the dosage ranges from 10 - 100 ppm. It can be added either continuously or intermittently to maintain an effective concentration in the water.
For textile applications, Bronopol is usually incorporated into the textile finishing agents at a concentration of 0.05% - 0.2%. Similar to the cosmetic application, it should be properly dissolved and mixed with the finishing agents before applying to the textiles.
Case 1: A cosmetics company was facing a problem of short shelf - life and microbial contamination in their moisturizing creams. After adding our high - quality Bronopol at a concentration of 0.05%, the microbial growth was effectively controlled. The creams were able to maintain their quality for more than two years, which significantly reduced product returns and increased customer satisfaction.
Case 2: An industrial cooling tower was experiencing severe biofouling, leading to reduced heat transfer efficiency and increased energy consumption. By adding Bronopol at a dosage of 50 ppm, the microbial population in the cooling water was reduced by over 90%. This improved the heat transfer efficiency by 20% and saved a significant amount of energy costs.
Case 3: A textile manufacturer was dealing with mold and mildew problems on their finished textiles during storage. After using Bronopol in their textile finishing agents at a concentration of 0.1%, the textiles remained free from microbial damage for a long time. This enhanced the quality of their products and reduced the loss due to spoilage.
