Rocima 607 is a pH stable 1,2 -Benzisothiazolin-3-one and Bronopol.
Rocima 607 Provides broad-spectrum activity.
Rocima 607 is recommended for paints, coatings, latex, colorants, mineral slurries and eletro-deposition.

Description of Rocima 607:
Rocima 607 Biocide is a film preservative for use in aqueous plaster, paint and varnish systems.
Rocima 607 is used to prevent the growth of fungi, algae and lichen on coatings.
Rocima 607 is an ideal combination of fungicidal and algicidal active substances, where a very broad spectrum of activity against micro-organisms occurring on coatings is required.
Rocima 607 is in the form of a fluid, pumpable dispersion.

Typical Properties of Rocima 607:
Miscibility/Solubility:
Miscible with water, partially miscible with organic solvents.
Practically insoluble in water and organic solvents.
Compatibility
Rocima 607 may react with metal containing additives.
Stability
The activity will not be affected by short periods of temperatures up to 100°C during manufacturing, or by pH in the range 4-10.

Application and Activity of Rocima 607:
Rocima 607 is the appropriate preservative for protecting all kinds of coated surfaces from the growth of algae, lichen and moulds.
The addition of Rocima 607 to paints prevents the coating film itself from becoming a culture medium for micro-organisms.
Moreover, through the optimised diffusion of the active substances to the surface of the coating, the growth of algae, lichen and moulds can be prevented for a long time, even under adverse weather conditions.

Dosage of Rocima 607:
The optimum dosage of Rocima 607 depends largely upon the amount of dirt to be expected on the treatedsurfaces and the potential of the local environment to contaminate the substrate.
Rocima 607 will also be dependent on the susceptibility of the coating to fungal and algal growth.
The bioactive substances in Rocima 607 Biocide are irreversibly consumed in the prevention of growth of microorganisms, and hence a reliable estimate of the expected level of contamination is very important when deciding the optimum dosage of Rocima 607 to be used.
For this reason the concentration ranges listed below should be used as general guidelines only:

In cases of exposure to extreme weather, continuous condensation or if the coating is subjected to rapid contamination with surface dirt, the dosage of Rocima 607 may have to be increased above the usual levels.
It is recommended that proposed dosages should be checked in laboratory tests and if possible with practical external experiments as well.

Handling of Rocima 607:
Please refer to the safety data sheet of this product for precise handling instructions.
The processing and use of industrial chemicals require adequate technical and professional knowledge.
In general, avoid eye and skin contact, wear safety goggles, gloves and protective clothing.
In case of eye or skin contact despite precautionary measures, wash immediately and thoroughly with plenty of warm water and obtain medical attention.
The legal requirements prevailing in your country, especially on working hygiene and in the avoidance of accidents, must be observed.

Storage of Rocima 607
ROCIMA 382 should be stored in tightly closed original containers at room temperature. Protect from light and frost.
Any supplies which do freeze must be mixed homogeneously after thawing before they can be used, no loss in effectiveness will be experienced.

Paints 1.0 - 2.0%
Plaster 0.3 - 0.6%
Use biocides safely.
Always read the label and product information before use.

Application and Activity of Rocima 607:
Rocima 607 Biocide is especially suited for the preservation of paints and coatings, however, it can also be used in other technical, aqueous products such as polymer emulsions, mineral dispersions, adhesives and sealants, liquid cleaners, floor polishes, surfactants, and printing inks.
Rocima 607 Biocide shows a broad spectrum of activity against bacteria and fungi commonly found in the field of application.
Rocima 607 Biocide complies with several food contact legislations of the European Union and of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) of the USA.
For up-to-date information on regulatory issues contact your DuPont representative.
The number of technical products being preserved with Rocima 607 Biocide is increasing steadily and it is not always possible to predict its suitability.
The optimum dose should be established by preliminary experiments.

Dosage of Rocima 607:
Rocima 607 Biocide is added at use rates between 0.1% and 0.4% (w/w).
According to our experience a typical addition rate between 0.15 and 0.25% of Rocima 607 Biocide in the finished formula provides a very good protection in most cases.
The amount of a preservative to be added is dependent on the susceptibility of the raw materials against microbial spoilage and their level of contamination.
The amount of preservative used can be minimised by observing hygienic conditions in the storage of raw materials, during production, filling processes and subsequent warehousing.

General:
Rocima 607 is a flowable, stable, aqueous dispersion of active ingredients for the storage preservation of technical products.
Rocima 607 is a preparation providing a broad spectrum of activity against against bacteria and fungi commonly occurring in the field of application.
Additionally, the risk of growth of resistant strains can be minimized.
Rocima 607 Biocide is a preparation of 1,2-Benzisothiazolin-3-one and Bronopol.
