1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-One has good compatibility with various emulsifiers, surfactants, and other agents, and is miscible with alcohol and water solutions at any ratio.
1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-One has a broader range of applications than similar products and is suitable for use in media with a pH value range of 4.0-12.
Technical Specification
Applications & Usage
For use in cosmetics, body care products, and other daily chemicals, the concentration of using is in the range of 0.05-0.40% (w/w) depending on the storage environment and whether the product is susceptible to the destroy of microorganisms. The specific formula and instructions for the concentration of using will be based on the company's microbial technology division.
BIT can be added at any production step,but it's suggested to be added at the final step at less than 50℃,avoid adding at a temperature of higher than 50℃.
