- Product Applications
- Typical uses are paints & coatings, caulks, sealants, adhesives, and mulch colorants. BIOTREND CTL40-D’s superior long-term performance is due mainly to its very low water solubility and leach resistance, as it remains longer in the coating film.
- BIOTREND CTL40-D has also proven itself as a highly effective long-term mold preventative in building products including composite wood, freshly sawn wood, pressure treatment and wallboard.
- Additionally, Chlorothalonil is a common fungicide universally employed in agriculture, first registered in the U.S. in 1966 and used to protect a wide range of crops from fungal disease including lawns, peanuts, potatoes and tomatoes.
- Chlorothalonil may not be compatible with all formulation components. Before commercial use and introduction, formulations incorporating BIOTREND CTL products should be fully evaluated for efficacy, compatibility, and stability. In general, BIOTREND CTL products should be incorporated near the end of the manufacturing cycle. Incompatibility may be indicated by loss of efficacy, color changes, changes in viscosity and/or pH, and reduced storage stability. Under certain conditions, use of chlorothalonil may contribute to chalking of dark colored paints.
- Formulation Applications
BIOTREND CTL40-D is registered for protection of the following applications: latex emulsion paints, stains, and coatings, aqueous adhesives, aqueous caulks and sealants, freshly sawn wood (sapstain and mold), decay and mold protection in composite wood products (including wood-thermoplastic composites [WPC’s]), pressure treatment, wallboard (drywall & gypsum board), concrete, masonry, and porous and non-porous hard surface substrates.
