KATHON™ CF 400 Microbicide

Introducing a New, Higher Concentration Metal-Free Isothiazolone Technology from
Dow for Water Treatment and Polymer Latex Preservation

US EPA Registration: 707-316

Features Benefits

Higher concentration

Less material to handle, reducing freight, inventory and container transfer and disposal

Metal free

Avoids potentially adverse environmental impacts

Broad spectrum antimicrobial efficacy

Excellent long-lasting microbial control equivalent to KATHON WT 1.5% Microbicide

Excellent stability

Comparable stability to KATHON WT 1.5% and KATHON CF 150 biocides

Compatible with commonly used polymers and other biocides (oxidizing and non-oxidizing)

Flexible and simple to use

Non-mutagenic, non-teratogenic, and
non-carcinogenic

No exposure to material with chronic toxicity

Active ingredients degrade quickly to non-toxic materials

Does not persist or bioaccumulate in the environment
