Bardac® 22

Bardac® 22 Antimicrobial contains the active substance Didecyldimethyl- ammonium chloride (DDAC).

DDAC has antimicrobial efficacy against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, yeast, algae and enveloped viruses. High antimicrobial efficacy is maintained even at low temperatures and in the presence of organic soil, such as blood and protein. In formulated products, DDAC is stable over a wide range of pH levels and can be used in a number of applications such as food processing, institutional, veterinary, healthcare areas, home care, product preservation and laundry sanitisers.
