Abstract
A synergistic microbicidal composition having two components. The first component is a nonionic surfactant with structure: R2O(CH2CH(CH3)O)3(CH2CH2O)5H, where R2 is a mixture of C8-C14 linear alkyl groups. The second component is 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol. The weight ratio of the nonionic surfactant to 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol is from 1:0.08 to 1:0.12 or 1:0.2 to 1:1.8286.
Description

This invention relates to microbicidal compositions containing 2-bromo-2-nitropropane-1,3-diol (BNPD), tetrahydro-3,5-dimethyl-2H-1,3,5-thiadiazine-2-thione (DAZOMET) or BIOBAN P-1487 (ca. 81:5 mixture of 4-(2-nitrobutyl)morpholine and 4,4′-(2-ethyl-2-nitrotrimethylene)dimorpholine, respectively) and a surfactant.


A composition containing 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazolin-3-one, 2-methylisothiazolin-3-one and a nonionic dispersant is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,295,932. The composition contains a 3:1 mixture of 5-chloro-2-methylisothiazolin-3-one and 2-methylisothiazolin-3-one, and a copolymer of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide which appears to have the same composition as PLURONIC L61 or TERGITOL L61 dispersant. However, there is a need for combinations of microbicides having synergistic activity against various strains of microorganisms to provide effective control of the microorganisms. Moreover, there is a need for such combinations containing lower levels of individual microbicides for environmental and economic benefit. The problem addressed by this invention is to provide such synergistic combinations of microbicides.

Preferably, the linear alkyl groups are derived from seed oil. Preferably, R1 is 2-ethylhexyl.


Preferably, each of the compositions is substantially free of microbicides other than the nonionic surfactant and BNPD, DAZOMET or BIOBAN P-1487, i.e., it has less than 1 wt % of microbicides other than the nonionic surfactant and BNPD, DAZOMET or BIOBAN P-1487 based on total weight of active ingredients, preferably less than 0.5 wt %, preferably less than 0.2 wt %, preferably less than 0.1 wt %.

The microbicidal compositions of the present invention can be used to inhibit the growth of microorganisms or higher forms of aquatic life (such as protozoans, invertebrates, bryozoans, dinoflagellates, crustaceans, mollusks, etc) by introducing a microbicidally effective amount of the compositions into an aqueous medium subject to microbial attack. Suitable aqueous media are found in, for example: industrial process water; electrocoat deposition systems; cooling towers; air washers; gas scrubbers; mineral slurries; wastewater treatment; ornamental fountains; reverse osmosis filtration; ultrafiltration; ballast water; evaporative condensers; heat exchangers; pulp and paper processing fluids and additives; starch; plastics; emulsions; dispersions; paints; latices; coatings, such as varnishes; construction products, such as mastics, caulks, and sealants; construction adhesives, such as ceramic adhesives, carpet backing adhesives, and laminating adhesives; industrial or consumer adhesives; photographic chemicals; printing fluids; household products, such as bathroom and kitchen cleaners; cosmetics; toiletries; shampoos; soaps; personal care products such as wipes, lotions, sunscreen, conditioners, creams, and other leave-on applications; detergents; industrial cleaners; floor polishes; laundry rinse water; metalworking fluids; conveyor lubricants; hydraulic fluids; leather and leather products; textiles; textile products; wood and wood products, such as plywood, chipboard, flakeboard, laminated beams, oriented strandboard, hardboard, and particleboard; petroleum processing fluids; fuel; oilfield fluids, such as injection water, fracture fluids, and drilling muds; agriculture adjuvant preservation; surfactant preservation; medical devices; diagnostic reagent preservation; food preservation, such as plastic or paper food wrap; food, beverage, and industrial process pasteurizers; toilet bowls; recreational water; pools; and spas.


The specific amount of the microbicidal compositions of this invention necessary to inhibit or control the growth of microorganisms in an application will vary. Amounts of the compositions of the present invention are given on the basis of active ingredients (i.e., nonionic surfactant and BNPD, DAZOMET or BIOBAN P-1487). For BNPD/surfactant used in paper applications, preferably the concentration is 2 to 50 ppm, preferably 5 to 40 ppm. For BNPD/surfactant used in oil and gas drilling applications, preferably the concentration is 10 to 500 ppm, preferably 20 to 350 ppm. For BNPD/surfactant used in metalworking fluids, preferably the concentration is 150 to 2000 ppm, preferably 300 to 1500 ppm. For BIOBAN P-1487/surfactant used in metalworking fluids, preferably the concentration is 600 to 1800 ppm, preferably 800 to 1500 ppm. For BIOBAN P-1487/surfactant used in fuel applications, preferably the concentration is 300 to 4000 ppm, preferably 500 to 3000 ppm. Fuel applications include the preservation of hydrocarbons for fuel, e.g., bioethanol applications, diesel storage tank preservation and general fuel tank preservation. In a method of this invention, a composition is treated to inhibit microbial growth by adding, together or separately, the nonionic surfactant and BNPD, DAZOMET or BIOBAN P-1487, in amounts that would produce the concentrations indicated above.


EXAMPLES

Surfactants and biocides were evaluated for synergy by determining the synergy index (S.I.) of the combination. Synergy index was calculated based on minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC) of two antimicrobial compounds (A and B) alone and in combinations. The tests organisms were Gram negative bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC #15442), Gram positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus ATCC #6538), yeast (Candida albicans ATCC#10203) and mold (Aspergillus niger ATCC#16404). Contact time for the bacteria was 24 and 48 hours, yeast was 48 and 72 hrs, and 3 and 7 days for mold. The test was carried out in 96 well microtiter plates.

The test results for demonstration of synergy of the MIC combinations are shown in the tables below. Each table shows the results for combinations of two components against the microorganisms tested with incubation times; the end-point activity in ppm measured by the MIC for compound A alone (CA), for component B alone (CB), and the mixture (Ca) and (Cb); the calculated SI value; and the range of synergistic ratios for each combination tested. SI is calculated as follows:

Ca/CA+Cb/CB=Synergy Index (“SI”)


Wherein:

    • CA=concentration of compound A in ppm, acting alone, which produced an end point (MIC of Compound A).
    • Ca=concentration of compound A in ppm, in the mixture, which produced an end point.
    • CB=concentration of compound B in ppm, acting alone, which produced an end point (MIC of Compound B).
    • Cb=concentration of compound B in ppm, in the mixture, which produced an end point.


      When the sum of Ca/CA and Cb/CB is greater than one, antagonism is indicated. When the sum is equal to one, additivity is indicated, and when less than one, synergism is demonstrated.

No synergy : P. aeruginosa







The following biocides had no synergy against any organism tested when paired with the following surfactants:


Surf. A


Sodium Benzoate, TRIS NITRO


Surf. E


DMDMH


Surf. D


CS-1246, OPP, DMDMH


In the following combinations, the ratio of surfactant to biocide where synergy was observed were not commercially relevant, i.e., a ratio of 1:0.2 or greater (less biocide relative to surfactant). At these ratios, the biocide levels in a formulated product would be too low to be practical:


Surf. A


DIDAC, IPBC


Surf. E


CMIT/MIT, IPBC, OIT, TTPC, WSCP


Surf. D


CMIT/MIT, OIT, DIDAC


(MBIT, IPBC, WSCP were synergistic only at 1:0.05 or worse except for one data point)

Claims
  • 1. A synergistic microbicidal composition comprising: (a) a nonionic surfactant with structure: R1O(CH2CH(CH3)O)5(CH2CH2O)9H
  • 2. The synergistic microbicidal composition of claim 1 in which R1 is 2-ethylhexyl.
