Clariant Nipacide CI 15 HS Fungicide – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What types of microorganisms does Nipacide CI 15 HS effectively control?

A: Nipacide CI 15 HS is a broad-spectrum fungicide designed to inhibit the growth of fungi, yeasts, and certain bacteria commonly associated with spoilage and biofilm formation in water-based industrial systems, including coatings, adhesives, and construction chemicals.


Q2: In which product categories is Nipacide CI 15 HS typically formulated?

A: It is widely used in aqueous formulations such as architectural and industrial coatings, tile adhesives, grouts, cementitious mortars, and other construction-related products where long-term microbial stability and low-odor preservation are required.


Q3: Is Nipacide CI 15 HS compatible with common thickeners and surfactants used in waterborne systems?

A: Yes, Nipacide CI 15 HS demonstrates good compatibility with associative and non-associative thickeners (e.g., HASE, HEUR), anionic and nonionic surfactants, and typical co-biocides used in preservation strategies—though compatibility should always be verified during formulation development.


Q4: How should Nipacide CI 15 HS be added during manufacturing?

A: It is recommended to add Nipacide CI 15 HS during the cool-down phase, after high-shear mixing and temperature-sensitive components have been incorporated, to ensure optimal stability and preserve its biocidal efficacy without degradation.


Q5: Does Nipacide CI 15 HS require pH adjustment for optimal performance?

A: Performance is generally robust across a wide pH range (approximately pH 4–10), but maximum stability and activity are typically observed under mildly acidic to neutral conditions. Significant alkalinity may reduce efficacy over time, so monitoring and stabilization are advised in highly alkaline systems.
