Chemtex manufactures Iodophore which is a very effective and food grade disinfectant for F&B industry such as dairy, ice cream, brewery, food processing, meat processing and beverages etc.

Iodophore or commonly referred as Iodophor is a preparation containing iodine complexed with a solubilizing agent, such as a surfactant or povidone (forming povidone-iodine). The result is a water soluble material that releases free iodine when in solution. Iodophors are prepared by mixing iodine with the solubilizing agent; heat can be used to speed up the reaction.

Application:
 For disinfection in various industry related to the F&B sector.

Dosage:
It is often supplied in different concentrations and is further diluted with water before use. The label will advise the appropriate dilution rate, commonly 1:1000 or 1:100. Equipment to be sanitized should be thoroughly clean and left in contact with the solution for at least 2 minutes. Diluted iodophor is also used extensively in the dairy industry.

Major Benefits
 
Non-Toxic Disinfection.

H2S – A Silent Ultimatum to Oilfields

H 2 S Scavenger Chemical – Introduction The world has witnessed a substantial increase in E&P of crude oil to meet the need for globalization, leading to drilling of ‘deemed undesirable’ sites, owing to the presence of higher concentration of acidic gases like hydrogen sulphide, carbon dioxide, etc. These hazardous gases require proper measures before disposal or scavenging. Of these, Hydrogen sulphide/ H 2 S is the most threatening one, especially in confined or ill ventilated places. The characteristic rotten egg smell makes H 2 S recognition easy even at lower concentrations. Hydrogen Sulphide is toxic, acidic and extremely corrosive at higher concentrations. Heavier than air, it is found more near base level of the working sites. Then comes its inflammability, which may cause explosive reaction with air molecules. With peroxides, ammonia and other oxidizing chemicals, H 2 S often goes through combustible reactions, ...

Enhance IAQ of Closed Spaces with Air Fumigation: ALSTASAN SILVOX 150 FUME

Chemists around the world have shown considerable interest in various aspects and working of Hydrogen Peroxide as a disinfectant at different concentration. Over the past few years, it has been observed by them that a mere 0.5% of Hydrogen Peroxide shows excellent antiviral property within 60 seconds of application, reason being a strong oxidizing agent which helps in eliminating harmful microorganisms wherever used. It oxidizes the cell molecules, rupturing its whole structure and deactivating its ability to replicate. With silver, it has relatively wider range of biocidal (anti-bacterial and anti-fungal) pursuits than other disinfecting chemicals. Since Hydrogen Peroxide is a strong oxidizing agent and silver shows excellent anti-microbial property, their chemical combination brings a lot to the table as a rapid yet effective disinfecting agent with limited or rather no toxicity. Taking the above ideas into consideration, We at Chemtex Speciality Limited have come up with a brand n...
