Synergistic microbicidal compositions
View Patent ↗This invention relates to synergistic combinations of selected isothiazolin-3-one microbicides in combination with a second microbicide or formulation ingredient or raw material. The combinations have greater efficacy than would be expected from combinations of the individual components. The combinations include mixtures of (a) Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one or (b) 1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one with one or more of a variety of other compounds.
1. A composition comprising a microbicidally synergistic mixture of:
(a) 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one; and
(b) one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of anisic acid, decylene glycol, diethylene triamine pentacetic acid (DTPA), hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine triacetic acid (HEDTA), imminodisuccinate (IDS), maleic acid, methyl glycine diacetic acid (MDGA), phenoxypropanol, phytic acid, and propionic acid.
2. A composition comprising a microbicidally synergistic mixture of:
(a) 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one; and
(b) one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of anisic acid, capric acid, decylene glycol, diethylene triamine pentacetic acid (DTPA), etidronic acid, gluconic acid, hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine triacetic acid (HEDTA), imminodisuccinate (IDS), maleic acid, methyl glycine diacetic acid (MDGA), phenoxypropanol, phytic acid, and propionic acid.
