PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Product Description

DCMX 98% Bactericide Di-Chloroxylenol is a high-purity antimicrobial raw material based on Dichloroxylenol, chemically identified as 2,4-Dichloro-3,5-dimethylphenol. It is supplied as white to off-white flakes or agglomerated crystalline material with a characteristic phenolic odor. The referenced commercial specification provides a minimum active-matter content of 98% and controls water content, iron, residue on ignition, physical appearance, odor, and solution clarity. Dichloroxylenol has limited solubility in water and greater solubility in several organic media. It is documented in reference material for use in regulated antimicrobial, hygiene, personal-care, and selected industrial preservation contexts. Because Dichloroxylenol is a biologically active chemical with health-hazard classifications, final product claims, permitted applications, labeling, storage, and commercial availability should be reviewed against the actual supplier Safety Data Sheet and applicable market regulations.

KEY PROPERTIES

Product Characteristics

High-purity Dichloroxylenol raw material with a referenced active-matter content of at least 98%.
Supplied as white to off-white flakes or agglomerated crystalline material with a characteristic phenolic odor.
Exhibits limited water solubility, with the reference product reporting approximately 0.2 g/L at 20°C.
Designed for regulated antimicrobial and preservation applications where Dichloroxylenol is specifically permitted.
Defined quality controls cover active matter, water content, iron, residue on ignition, appearance, odor, and solution clarity.
Requires application-specific safety and regulatory assessment because concentrated Dichloroxylenol presents recognized health hazards.

STORAGE & HANDLING

Handling Guidance

Store and handle the material only in accordance with the supplier-specific Safety Data Sheet and applicable workplace chemical-safety requirements. Maintain the product in appropriately labeled compatible packaging and protect it from conditions that could affect product quality or create avoidable exposure. Because concentrated Dichloroxylenol is classified as harmful if swallowed and may cause significant eye or skin irritation, professional handling controls and appropriate regulatory requirements should be followed. Transportation, storage, spill response, disposal, and final product labeling should be based on the documentation supplied by the actual PBL supplier and the regulations applicable to the destination market.
