Product Description
Preventol CMK (p-Chloro-m-cresol, CAS No. 59-50-7) is a premium broad-spectrum antimicrobial preservative specifically formulated for high-demand industrial and specialty applications. It effectively inhibits bacteria, yeast, and fungi, ensuring long-term protection and product stability in challenging environments such as high pH systems, elevated temperatures, and complex chemical formulations.
This phenolic compound is an off-white to pale yellow crystalline solid with a mild phenolic odor. It is slightly soluble in water and readily soluble in alcohols, oils, and organic solvents, which ensures excellent compatibility in water-based and solvent-based systems. Preventol CMK is particularly effective in coatings, adhesives, polymer dispersions, leather treatments, metalworking fluids, and specialty chemicals, maintaining antimicrobial efficacy during storage, transport, and use.
Preventol CMK can be used alone or in combination with other preservatives to achieve synergistic antimicrobial effects. Its high efficiency at low concentrations makes it a cost-effective solution for manufacturers seeking reliable, long-term microbial protection in demanding industrial systems.
