Dow 910SB Biocide – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the primary mode of action of Dow 910SB Biocide?

A: Dow 910SB Biocide functions primarily as a broad-spectrum preservative through disruption of microbial cell membranes and interference with essential metabolic processes, effectively controlling bacteria, yeasts, and molds in industrial formulations.


Q2: In which types of formulations is Dow 910SB Biocide commonly used?

A: It is widely employed in water-based industrial products such as metalworking fluids, latex paints, adhesives, coatings, and construction chemicals—particularly where long-term microbial stability and compatibility with anionic and nonionic systems are required.


Q3: Is Dow 910SB Biocide compatible with common thickeners and surfactants?

A: Yes, Dow 910SB Biocide demonstrates good compatibility with many rheology modifiers (e.g., associative thickeners, cellulose ethers) and both anionic and nonionic surfactants typically found in aqueous industrial formulations.


Q4: How should Dow 910SB Biocide be added to a formulation?

A: It is recommended to add Dow 910SB Biocide during the cool-down phase, after high-shear mixing and pH adjustment, to maximize stability and efficacy. Pre-dilution with water or a compatible solvent may improve dispersion in viscous systems.


Q5: What storage conditions are recommended for optimal shelf life?

A: Store in original sealed containers at temperatures between 5 °C and 30 °C, away from direct sunlight and strong oxidizing agents. Prolonged exposure to freezing or excessive heat may affect performance consistency.
