Description

Copper pyrithione is a green crystalline fine powder with high stability, stored under light-proof conditions, the content remains unchanged for two years, mainly used in the production of daily chemical products, adhesives, paints, coatings, paper, pharmaceuticals, leather and other industries.


Copper pyrithione belong to a class of cyclic sulfur organo products containing sulfur atom (S) and often oxygen (O), nitrogen (N), hydrogen (H), as well as other elements, can find application for making biologically active agents such as antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal agents. It is an effective inhibitor of microbe growth including algal, fungal (molds & yeasts) and bacterial (gram-positive & gram-negative).

Copper Pyrithione Use and Manufacturing

Broad-spectrum fungicides and pollution-free marine biocides; used in marine antifouling paints, architectural coatings, metal processing, pesticides, etc.


Copper pyrithione is intended to be used as a co-biocide (booster biocide) by both professional and non-professional users in antifouling products (PT 21) against marine fouling species. It is meant to be effective against soft-fouling organisms, so its function is to increase the efficacy of the product in order to remove the most problematic fouling organisms.
