Function:
1. O-phenylphenol has remarkable bactericidal and antiseptic ability.
2. O-phenylphenol is a potent antioxidant.
Application:
1. In the preservation process of fruits and vegetables, o-phenylphenol can be used as a preservative.
2. For seed treatment, it can kill the fungi and bacteria attached to the surface of the seeds, improve the germination rate of the seeds and the health of the seedlings.
3. Add to coatings and paints as a preservative to prevent deterioration due to microbial growth during storage and use. It can also improve the water resistance and weather resistance of the coating and extend the service life of the coating.
4. It has a significant inhibitory effect on wood decay bacteria, mold and insects and ants, thus extending the service life of wood. It can be used for anticorrosion treatment of building wood, furniture wood and outdoor wooden structures (such as wooden fences, wooden houses, etc.).
5. In personal care products (such as shampoo, body wash, skin care products, etc.), o-phenylphenol can be used as a preservative to inhibit the growth of bacteria and mold during the use of products to ensure the safety and stability of products.
6. In household cleaning products (such as dish soap, hand sanitizer, etc.), it can prevent the product from being contaminated by microorganisms during the use cycle after opening, and maintain the cleaning performance and odor of the cleaning product.
