Product Description
Preventol CMK (p-Chloro-m-cresol, CAS No. 59-50-7) is a versatile broad-spectrum antimicrobial preservative widely applied in industrial, cosmetic, and chemical formulations. It provides effective protection against bacteria, yeast, and molds, ensuring long-term stability, product safety, and enhanced shelf life across diverse applications.
This high-purity phenolic compound appears as an off-white to pale yellow crystalline solid with a mild phenolic odor. It is slightly soluble in water and readily soluble in alcohols, oils, and organic solvents, which makes it highly compatible with both aqueous and non-aqueous systems. Its strong chemical stability allows it to maintain efficacy under challenging conditions such as high pH, elevated temperature, or complex multi-component formulations.
Preventol CMK can be used independently or synergistically with other preservatives to optimize antimicrobial performance while minimizing total preservative content. Its high efficiency at low concentrations provides cost-effective microbial control in a wide range of formulations, including coatings, adhesives, metalworking fluids, leather treatment agents, and personal care products.
