- Applications: BIT has outstanding inhibitory effects on the growth of molds (fungi,
bacteria), algae, and other microorganisms in organic media, solving a
series of problas such as mold, fermentation, spoilage, aulsion
breaking, and odor caused by microbial growth in organic products.
Therefore, it is widely used in latex products, water-soluble resins,
coatings (latex paint), acrylics, polymers, polyurethane products,
photographic washing solutions, papermaking, ink, leather, lubricating
oil, and other products.
