Technical Details & Test Data
- Biocide and Preservatives Performance Test Data
Dissolvine GL-47-S is an important ingredient in formulations providing benefits that enhance the effectiveness of biocides and biological preservatives. Dissolvine GL-47-S is effective on molds and both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. When you include Dissolvine GL-47-S in the formulations, you can significantly reduce the amount of activity needed while preserving efficacy and saving on formulation costs.
Species is deprived of multivalent cations weakening the outer surface and more vunerable for the action of preservatives
Amount of Arquad® MCB-50 needed to obtain 99.9% kill (Pseudomonas aeruginosa)
Studies performed by a third-party laboratory on Pseudonomas aeruginosa, Aspergilis niger and Staphylococcus aureus have demonstrated the following:- With common preservatives, a savings of up to 30% was typically observed
- With benzoic acid, a savings of up to 90% was possible.
- Density Data
Liquid density The density of the liquid can be used as a quick reference to check the concentration of the material. See Figure 1.
Figure 1: Density of Dissolvine® GL plotted against GLDA-Na4 concentration based on GL-38, GL-47-S and GL Premium.
- Viscosity Data
Viscosity is an important parameter for handling products and is dependent on concentration and temperature. Figure 2 shows the viscosity of various concentrations of GLDA-Na4 solutions as a function of temperature.
