Clariant Nipacide CFX 3 is a water-based in-can biocide from Nipacide series, formulated with formaldehyde and CMIT/MIT, combining isothiazolinone and formaldehyde donor advantages, providing dual in-can and headspace protection for water-based products to inhibit various microbes.
Dual protection full coverage – Synchronous protection of in-can + headspace, targeting fungal surface contamination
Broad-spectrum & strong antibacterial – Effectively against Gram+/Gram– bacteria, yeast & fungi, anti-spoilage
Wide-range stability – Stable at pH 4–9 & ≤40℃, fits most water-based systems
High compliance – Certified by FDA and BfR, suitable for food contact scenarios
Low-toxic & easy processing – Water-based, easy to add and disperse, long-lasting protection at low dosage
Water-based adhesives & sealants
Polymer emulsions & dispersions
Water-based decorative & wood coatings
Metalworking fluids & cutting fluids
Construction chemicals & building mixtures

Q1: What types of microorganisms does Nipacide CFX 3 effectively control?
A: Nipacide CFX 3 is a broad-spectrum fungicide designed to inhibit the growth of common spoilage fungi and yeasts in water-based industrial systems, including molds such as Aspergillus and Penicillium species, as well as Saccharomyces and Candida yeasts.
Q2: In which industrial applications is Nipacide CFX 3 typically used?
A: It is commonly applied in water-based coatings, adhesives, construction chemicals, and architectural paints—particularly where long-term in-can preservation against microbial degradation is required during storage and distribution.
Q3: How should Nipacide CFX 3 be incorporated into a formulation?
A: It is typically added during the final stage of manufacturing, after pH adjustment and cooling, to ensure optimal stability and compatibility. Dosage depends on formulation requirements but generally ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight of the total formulation.
Q4: Is Nipacide CFX 3 compatible with common co-biocides and formulation ingredients?
A: Yes, it demonstrates good compatibility with many isothiazolinones, formaldehyde releasers, and standard surfactants, thickeners, and pigments found in water-based systems—though compatibility testing under actual formulation conditions is recommended.
Q5: What safety and handling precautions should be observed?
A: As with all biocidal actives, appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection should be worn during handling. The product should be used in well-ventilated areas, and full safety information is provided in the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
