Biosafe® HM4100
- Chemical Family
- Organosilane
Biosafe® HM4100 is a silicon-based antimicrobial that contains 3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyldimethyloctadecyl ammonium chloride, octadecyldimethyl(3-trihydroxysilylpropyl)ammonium chloride (at a concentration of 84% active condensed), and silsesquioxanes, 3-(dimethyloctadecylammonio)propyl, hydroxy-terminated, chlorides. It is approved by NSF 51 and has an EPA Registration Number of 83019-1. This non-leaching antimicrobial is specifically designed to impart bacteriostatic, fungistatic, and algistatic properties to coatings and resins used in the production of manufactured goods. Biosafe® HM4100 is commonly employed in resin blending, compounding, and coatings applications. The highlights of the product are as follows: Microbiostatic agent that protects articles from deterioration and discoloration Leach resistant Active against forms of fungi, algae, and bacteria Resin Compatibility TPU - Thermoplastic Polyurethane Urethane Foam Polyether bock amide (PEBAX®) Silicone (not post-cured) Polyamide 6 (PA6 or nylon 6) Acrylic (cast and thermoplastic) Acrylic Adhesives Spun Fiber Fiberglass Gel Coat

- HIGHLIGHTS
The antimicrobial component of HM 4100 kills microorganisms by effectively puncturing and rupturing the organisms' cell wall. By comparison, conventional antimicrobials kill by leaching into the cell, where they are metabolized and interfere with critical life processes.
