Octylisothiazolinone is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It has a relatively high purity in our product, which ensures its excellent performance in various applications.
The molecular formula of octylisothiazolinone is (C_{11}H_{19}NOS), and its molecular weight is approximately 213.34 g/mol. It is soluble in most organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The product is available at the best price, providing cost - effective solutions for different industries.
1. **Preservative in Cosmetics**: Octylisothiazolinone is widely used as a preservative in cosmetics. It can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeasts, extending the shelf - life of cosmetic products such as creams, lotions, and shampoos. This helps to maintain the quality and safety of cosmetics during storage and use.
2. **Industrial Antimicrobial Agent**: In the industrial field, it is used as an antimicrobial agent in water - based paints, adhesives, and cooling water systems. By preventing the growth of microorganisms, it can improve the performance and durability of these industrial products. For example, in water - based paints, it can prevent the formation of mold and mildew, maintaining the aesthetic appearance of the painted surface.
3. **Textile Industry**: In the textile industry, it can be used as a fungicide and antibacterial agent for textile finishing. It can help to prevent the growth of bacteria and fungi on textiles, reducing unpleasant odors and improving the hygiene of textile products.
1. **Cosmetics**: When formulating cosmetics, the recommended dosage of octylisothiazolinone is usually between 0.01% - 0.1%. First, dissolve the appropriate amount of octylisothiazolinone in a suitable solvent, such as ethanol or propylene glycol. Then, add the solution to the cosmetic formulation during the mixing process. Make sure to stir well to ensure uniform distribution.
2. **Industrial Products**: For water - based paints and adhesives, the dosage can range from 0.05% - 0.2%. Add octylisothiazolinone directly to the product during the production process and mix thoroughly. In cooling water systems, it can be added continuously or intermittently according to the system requirements, usually with a concentration of 5 - 20 ppm.
3. **Textile Industry**: In textile finishing, the fabric can be immersed in a solution containing octylisothiazolinone. The concentration of the solution is typically 0.1% - 0.5%. After immersion, the fabric should be dried at an appropriate temperature.
1. **Cosmetics Case**: A well - known cosmetic company was facing issues with the microbial contamination of its moisturizing lotion. After adding high - quality octylisothiazolinone at a dosage of 0.05%, the company observed a significant reduction in microbial growth. The product's shelf - life was extended from 6 months to 12 months, and customer complaints about product spoilage decreased significantly.
2. **Industrial Paint Case**: An industrial paint manufacturer was experiencing problems with mold growth on its water - based paints during storage. By adding octylisothiazolinone at a dosage of 0.1%, the mold growth was completely inhibited. The painted surfaces maintained their smooth and clean appearance even in high - humidity environments, which improved the company's reputation and customer satisfaction.
3. **Textile Case**: A textile factory was producing antibacterial bed sheets. By using octylisothiazolinone in the textile finishing process at a concentration of 0.3%, the bed sheets showed excellent antibacterial performance. After multiple washes, the antibacterial effect still remained, which led to increased market demand for the product.
