Methylchloroisothiazolinone/Methylisothiazolinone (CMIT/MIT) is a highly efficient and broad-spectrum biocide and preservative, widely used in both industrial and personal care applications. Typically appearing as a pale yellow liquid, it is readily soluble in water and hydrophilic solvents, with a density of approximately 1.293 g/mL for a 14% solution. Boasting strong antimicrobial properties, it effectively inhibits the growth of bacteria, fungi, and algae, making it suitable for preventing microbial proliferation in industrial systems and personal care products. However, due to its potential sensitizing nature, its use in personal care products is strictly regulated, particularly in leave-on cosmetics.

Application:
CMIT/MIT are synergistic antimicrobial agents used as preservatives in a wide range of products. Their primary function is to inhibit the growth of bacteria, fungi, and yeast, thereby preventing spoilage, maintaining product integrity, and ensuring user safety. The most common commercial form is a 3:1 ratio of CMIT (5-Chloro-2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one) to MIT (2-Methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one).
CMIT/MIT is widely used as a broad-spectrum preservative in:
1. Cosmetics and personal care products (e.g., shampoos, lotions).
2. Household and industrial liquids (e.g., detergents, cleaning agents).
3. Water treatment systems.
4. Paints and coatings.
5. Metalworking fluids.
