Verichem's products represent a wide range of chemistries, all of which have been demonstrated to be effective in controlling bacteria, yeast, fungi, and algae in many aqueous-based industrial applications.
Industrial antimicrobial agents and preservatives are synonymous terms for chemicals that inhibit the growth of microorganisms. They are used depending on the product's functions and nature of the end use in the industrial sector. Along with chemists and chemical engineers, microbiologists at Verichem apply years of direct application expertise and technological know-how to create custom product combinations that effectively control biodeterioration in our customers' processes and final product formulation.
Product Performance: Understanding Biocides
The function of a biocide added to any system can generally be categorized into two main areas:
- Preventative - Prevents a potential problem
- Corrective - Corrects a problem in the manufacturing stage.
The performance of a biocide depends on a precise combination of microbiology and chemistry. Each class of a biocide molecule has a killing action, based on its chemistry, which is either quick or slow acting, and will work vs. a broad or narrow spectrum of microorganisms.
