In Europe, façades are made of mineral materials such as stucco and gypsum, as well as wood materials which favor the growth of micro-organisms. Once a painted surface is colonized by micro-organisms, the integrity of the paint is compromised, and it may result on undesirable color changes and loss of adhesion. Then substrates are vulnerable and breakdowns may result.
DCOIT-based biocides avoid all the micro-organisms from growing, helping to maintain the aesthetic appearance of materials and protect substrates. The Biocide Center gives you all the information you need to consider to choose the ideal biocide agents:
Biocides based on DCOIT technology are a very effective ingredient for film preservation with the benefit to have a broad spectrum activity that make them suitable for both exterior and interior protection.
