Benzisothiazolinone (BIT) is a broad-spectrum antimicrobial preservative widely used in paints, coatings, adhesives, detergents, and industrial water treatment. Renowned for its long-term stability and effectiveness across wide pH and temperature ranges, BIT prevents the growth of bacteria, fungi, and algae in water-based systems, ensuring product integrity and extended shelf life.
Our BIT formulations are designed for excellent compatibility with surfactants, polymers, and emulsions, providing durable microbial protection in both concentrated and diluted applications.
