Carbamic acid, butyl-3-iodo-2-propynyl ester FUNGITROL® 440 fungicide is used primarily as a dry-film mildew protector for paint, coatings, stains, etc. Other applications include adhesives, metalworking fluids and printing inks. It is easily incorporated into water-based or solvent-based formulations. It can be added efficiently at the appropriate formulation stage (i.e., prior to letdown). The product exhibits good stability with ionic surfactants and emulsifiers. Inks FUNGITROL® 440 may be used in aqueous-based ink solutions for protection of these solutions against attack by fungal organisms. It is recommended that this product be added at the end of the production cycle with good agitation. This product will generally impart protection when used at levels of 0.05 - 3.0% of active ingredient based on the formula weight. Paints and Stains FUNGITROL® 440, used in solvent and waterborne paints and stains, will inhibit the growth of mildew. Addition should be at the end of the manufacturing process and allowed to mix long enough to be adequately dispersed and should not be added to hot paint. Typical levels for protection against mildew on painted surfaces are 0.25 - 1.2% by weight on wet paint. For example, house paint with a wet density of 10 lbs. per gallon would use 2.5 - 12.0 lbs. of this product per 100 gallons of wet paint. Where the climate is severe and mildew growth is a major problem for painted surfaces, more would be required, as much as 2.0% by weight in the paint. For interior paint use, approximately half the exterior concentration should be used, 0.1 - 0.6% by weight in the paint. Appropriate levels are best determined by field trials. Plastics and Plastic Coatings FUNGITROL® 440 may be used to prevent surface mildew growth on plastic items such as shower curtains, cable and wire insulation and sun umbrellas. Intended plastics include polymers such as PVC. Use levels of 0.125 - 2.5% by weight of the plastic are generally adequate. This product should be dispersed in the plasticizer or color concentrate before it is incorporated into the resin to ensure a uniform distribution. Use of this product is not recommended if the heat of processing is above 350°F for prolonged periods, nor should it be used in a plastic that will be in contact with food or medical device applications. Paper Coatings FUNGITROL® 440 may be used as a mildewcide in both aqueous and solvent-based coatings which are applied to paper and cardboard substrates. This product can be used to prevent mold and mildew from growing on products such as: corrugated cardboard or soap wrappers, wall covers, non-food contact packaging materials and non-food contact paper tapes. Use levels of this product range from 0.05 - 2.0% of this product by weight. This product should be added at the end of the production cycle and with good agitation to prevent possible mechanical losses and to ensure uniform distribution. As an example, to inhibit growth of mildew on corrugated cardboard intended for a non-food packaging, add 1.25% (12.5 lbs. FUNGITROL® 440 per 1000 lbs. of coating material) of this product to the coating material formulation. Wood Preservation FUNGITROL® 440 is a liquid designed for use as an additive to interior or exterior protective coatings to inhibit the growth of mildew on the film surface. It is also recommended as a wood preservative for use in above-ground applications. All recommendations of use levels are in percentage by weight and refer to this product. Dosage ranges are given for the various applications to indicate the approximate levels for a particular application. Exact levels of use should be determined by field trials. FUNGITROL® 440 may be applied from solvent solutions or aqueous dispersions to new lumber, plywood, particle board, etc., to prevent the growth of mildew, sapstain and wood rot on these substrates. This product is recommended for use on wood in above-ground use only. Treating solutions may be prepared by diluting this product in alcohols or aromatic solvents or by dispersion in water. Levels of 0.25 - 3% of this product are suggested, depending upon the severity of conditions for end use and the extent of time that protection is required. For freshly sawn lumber, a concentration of 0.5% of this product is suggested as a starting level. A one-minute dip at ambient temperatures in a solution or aqueous dispersion containing 0.5% of this product should be adequate to control the development of mildew and sapstain organisms on the lumber. Because of the great variation in susceptibility of fresh sawn lumber relating to the type of wood, sawing and storage techniques, conditions of humidity, method of treatment, etc., it is usually necessary to carry out field tests to determine the most appropriate means of application and the optimum concentration of this product to be used within the range specified. For best results, lumber should be treated within twenty-four hours after it is sawed. The lumber should be completely immersed in the treating bath, and the treating vat designed to permit easy immersion and removal and to minimize spillage. The vat may be cleaned by emptying and rinsing with a suitable solvent or by use of a detergent solution. To add additional product while treating, first prepare the proper solution or emulsion in a separate container (of wood, plastic or stainless steel construction) and add to the treating vessel. After treatment, lumber should be stacked in a properly maintained seasoning yard with good drainage so that no water will accumulate in any area. The yard should be kept free from weeds and vegetation, which may hold moisture and promote growth of decay and stain producing fungi. All debris and lumber scraps should be removed from the area. A properly laid out yard should take advantage of prevailing winds to permit good air circulation. Main alleys should be at least 16 feet wide. Stack foundations should be sufficiently elevated to permit ready access of air to the pile, and allow water to drain off quickly. Carbamic acid, butyl-3-iodo-2-propynyl ester.
