2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one MIT CAS 2682-20-4
2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one (MIT) is a new type of fungicide introduced to China from Europe. Isothiazolinone organic compounds can inhibit the growth and reproduction of various microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts, etc.) and are a widely used broad-spectrum fungicide. Compared with other types of fungicides, isothiazolinone fungicides have advantages such as obvious effects and fast action speed in controlling the growth and metabolism of microorganisms and preventing the formation of biofilms.

1. Personal care and cosmetics industry
2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one MIT as one of the core preservatives, it is used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms (bacteria, molds, yeasts) in products and extend their shelf life. Common application products include:
Liquid skin care products (such as toner, lotion, essence).
Cleaning products (such as shampoo, body wash, hand sanitizer.
Makeup and hair care products (such as lipstick and conditioner).
2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one MIT should be noted that as some people may experience skin sensitization, the concentration and restrictions of its use in leave-on skin care products must comply with the regulations of various countries (such as the EU Cosmetics regulations).
2. Industrial and commercial fields
2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one MIT is used for anti-corrosion in various water-based or water-containing systems to prevent product deterioration and performance decline caused by microbial contamination.
Coatings and adhesives: Prevent latex paint, water-based coatings and adhesives from getting moldy and smelly during storage and use.
Metalworking fluids: Protect cutting fluids, coolants, etc. from being damaged by bacteria during circulation, extend service life and reduce odors.
Textile printing and dyeing: During the dyeing and finishing process of fabrics, prevent color differences or deterioration of dyeing solutions and auxiliaries due to microbial contamination.
Papermaking and water treatment: It is used in the wet-end systems of pulp and papermaking, as well as industrial circulating water and wastewater treatment systems, to inhibit microbial adhesion (such as biofilms).
3. Home and cleaning fields
Anti-corrosion for household cleaning products, such as:
Multi-functional cleaner, kitchen cleaner, bathroom mold remover.
Fabric care products such as laundry detergent and fabric softener.
