*Natural fiber composites: 0.05 – 0.3 %.
These low levels are sufficient for effective microbial protection.
CHARACTERISTICS OF PREVENTOL MPT 11-40:
One important characteristic of Preventol MPT 11-40 is that it is not a single chemical substance but rather a formulated biocidal mixture containing active antifungal ingredients.
The most significant active compounds are Thiabendazole and 3‑Iodo‑2‑propynyl butylcarbamate.
Thiabendazole belongs to the benzimidazole class of fungicides and acts by interfering with fungal cell division, particularly by inhibiting microtubule formation during mitosis.
This mechanism prevents fungal cells from reproducing, effectively stopping the spread of molds.
IPBC, on the other hand, functions through a different biochemical pathway by disrupting fungal enzymes and metabolic processes.
When these two compounds are combined in the same formulation, they create a synergistic antifungal effect, meaning that the mixture provides stronger and broader protection against microbial attack than either compound would alone.
