Abstract
Synergistic combinations of iodopropargyl compounds and 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one for use in controlling the growth of at least one microorganism, such as fungi and bacteria in aqueous fluids, such as metalworking fluids.
Claims19
A microbicidal composition comprising (a) iodopropargyl carbamate and (b) 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one, wherein said composition contains an amount of (a) and (b) synergistically effective to control or reduce the growth of at least one microorganism.
A method of controlling or reducing the growth of at least one microorganism in an aqueous fluid comprising the step of adding to said fluid a microbicidal composition comprising (a) iodopropargyl carbamate and (b) 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one in a synergistically effective amount to control or reduce said growth.
A metalworking fluid comprising a fluid and (a) iodopropargyl carbamate and (b) 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one;
- said fluid containing an amount of (a) and (b) synergistically effective to control or reduce the growth of at least one microorganism in said fluid.
