Synergistic combination of a lenacil compound and terbutryn for dry film protection
View Patent ↗A synergistic antimicrobial composition containing lenacil and terbutryn is provided. Also provided is a method of inhibiting the growth of or controlling the growth of microorganisms in a building material by adding such a synergistic antimicrobial composition. Also provided is a coating composition containing such a synergistic antimicrobial composition, and a dry film made from such a coating composition.
1. A synergistic antimicrobial composition comprising lenacil and terbutryn wherein the weight ratio of the terbutryn to lenacil is from 1:5 to 5:1.
2. A method of inhibiting the growth of or controlling the growth of microorganisms in a building material, the method comprising the step of adding the synergistic antimicrobial composition of claim 1 to the building material.
3. A coating composition comprising the synergistic antimicrobial composition of claim 1 .
4. A dry film made by a process comprising applying a layer of the coating composition of claim 3 to a substrate and drying the coating composition or allowing the coating composition to dry.
