iHeir-JS Adhesive Antifungal Agent

Product Overview

iHeir-JS is a high-efficiency, broad-spectrum, low-toxicity liquid fungicide and preservative, specifically designed for latex paints, water-based coatings, polymer emulsions, pigment slurries, printing inks, and other water-containing organic products. It effectively inhibits the growth of bacteria (including Gram-negative and Gram-positive) and fungi (yeast, mold) during production and storage, protecting products from microbial spoilage. This product is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for in-can preservation of water-based paints and coatings, and is widely used for preservative protection in large-volume emulsion storage.

Product Advantages

Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial: Simultaneously inhibits bacteria (including Gram-negative and Gram-positive) and fungi (yeast, mold), effectively preventing spoilage, odor, and discoloration.
Cost-Effective: The cost at effective use concentration is lower than most preservatives on the market, and it is easy to use.
Safe & Environmentally Friendly: Non-toxic at recommended use levels, contains no formaldehyde or formaldehyde-releasing substances. Low active concentration, environmentally friendly. Rapidly and completely decomposes into harmless substances after use.
Excellent Compatibility: Highly compatible with acrylics, polyvinyl acetate, polystyrene butadiene copolymers, other copolymers, as well as organic/inorganic pigments. No adverse effects on finished products.
Good Stability: Shelf life of at least one year under normal storage temperatures.

In-can preservation of other water-containing organic products

Application Method

iHeir-JS is a liquid, easy to mix. It can be added directly during the grinding stage or during the paint/adhesive mixing stage.
After addition, stir thoroughly to ensure uniform dispersion.
Recommended Addition Rate: 1.0% – 2.0% based on total product weight.
Incorporating microbial capsule technology, it can also be used for antimicrobial treatment of packaging materials; the specific dosage is determined by product size or space volume.

Packaging & Storage

Packaging Specifications: 25 kg/drum and 160 kg/drum
Storage Conditions: Room temperature, in a well-ventilated indoor area. Do not use unlined metal containers.
Shelf Life: 1 year under normal storage temperatures.

Precautions

The concentrate is irritating to skin and eyes. Wear protective gloves and goggles during handling.
In case of skin contact, rinse with plenty of water. In case of eye contact, rinse immediately with water and seek medical attention.
Read the product Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before use.
