Q1: What is the primary mode of action of BASF Korantin LUB Fungicide?
A: Korantin LUB is a broad-spectrum fungicide based on a proprietary active ingredient with multi-site inhibition activity, offering robust protection against common spoilage fungi in industrial lubricants and metalworking fluids.
Q2: In which types of industrial systems is Korantin LUB typically used?
A: It is specifically formulated for use in water-miscible and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids, circulating lubricant systems, and other industrial process fluids where microbial stability—particularly against yeasts and molds—is critical to fluid life and performance.
Q3: Is Korantin LUB compatible with common biocides used in metalworking fluids?
A: Yes, Korantin LUB demonstrates good compatibility with isothiazolinones and formaldehyde donors when used at recommended treat rates; however, compatibility testing under actual formulation conditions is advised before full-scale implementation.
Q4: How should Korantin LUB be dosed in a typical metalworking fluid concentrate?
A: Dosage depends on formulation requirements and microbial challenge level, but it is generally added at low concentrations during the final stage of production—typically ranging from 0.1% to 2% by weight of the finished fluid, with optimal performance observed within the manufacturer’s validated range.
Q5: Does Korantin LUB contribute to foam control or affect emulsion stability in lubricants?
A: Korantin LUB is not designed as a defoamer or emulsifier; it has been engineered for minimal impact on foaming behavior and emulsion integrity when incorporated at recommended levels, supporting stable fluid performance over time.
