The two active ingredients, TCMTB and OIT meet the basic criteria for the award of the ecolabel under "Blue Angel" according to rule RAL-Uz -117 (low emission upholstered furniture, TCMTB to 500 ppm. And OIT to 100 ppm.)
- Principle
2-(thiocyanomethylthio)benzothiazole (TCMTB) and N-octylisothiazolone (NOIT)
- Doses
K-THIO VG25 is effective and stable in acid and alkaline medium, from pH 3,0 to 8,5. Usage doses will depend on the existent contamination and the particular conditions of each case. As a rule, K-THIO VG25 is applied at doses from 0,02 to 0,30% based on the total weight of the hides, although the dose will depend on the existent contamination and the particular conditions of each case.
