Esters with antimicrobial, bioresistant and fungal resistant properties
View Patent ↗A bromine/nitro moiety linked into the backbone of an ester or other compound over a wide range of occurrence rates provides antimicrobial, bio-resistant and fungal resistant properties for metal working fluids (MWF)s and other coatings. The moiety can be have the bromo and nitro groups linked to the same or different carbon atoms. The present invention also relates to urethanes, urea, amides, imides, carbonates, ethers, siloxanes, and many other types of linkages essential to MWF bases.
1. An anionic surfactant of the following structure:
where R is not equal to R′, and
where n, n′, m, and m′ are independently chosen integers greater than zero; and R or R′ is —SO 3 H or —SO 3 − or —H, and where J is not equal to J′ and J or J′ is —SO 3 H or —SO 3 − , or —H and A is any halogen, —CN, —SO 3 H, or is selected from the group consisting of linear or branched, saturated or unsaturated, alkyl, alkenyl and alkynal, with from 2 to 22 carbons.
2. The anionic surfactant of claim 1 where n=n′=7, m=m′=7, and A=Br.
3. A metal working fluid base comprising a molecule according to claim 1 .
4. A foaming or anti-foaming agent comprising a molecule according to claim 1 .
