Bayer Chemicals has expanded its line of
material protection products with the
acquisition of two families of biocide
chemistries from Ondeo Nalco Co.
The two products are DBDCB and
TBZ. DBDCB, which is FDA-registered,
is a preservative that can be used in
paint and coatings applications. TBZ is
one of the leading fungicidal
chemistries for protecting wet-state
paint.
“We are delighted to augment our
family of Prevento material protection
products with these proven active
ingredients,” said Frank Lueckgen, vice
president, Bayer Chemicals. “We
believe our customers will be equally
gratified that Bayer is growing its
material protection business in order to
become the source of greater value and
a broader range of highly effective
chemistries.”
