OMACIDE™ IPBC 30 Fungicide is a broad spectrum liquid fungicide based on the widely used fungicide active, 3-iodopropynyl butylcarbamate (IPBC). It imparts dry film protection against fungal growth when formulated in exterior paints and coatings, wood stains, adhesives, caulks, sealants, paper coatings, textiles, and plastics. OMACIDE™ IPBC 30 Fungicide also provides excellent fungal control when used in inks and metalworking fluid systems.

- Chemical Properties
OMACIDE™ IPBC 30 Fungicide is effective in products having a wide pH range (2 to 10). Laboratory evaluations are, however, recommended since IPBC products can sometimes induce yellowing in certain formulations, especially those containing resins based on styrenated polymers. In addition, IPBC may dehydrohalogenate in certain formulations, leading to corrosion of metal containers.
