TEGO® Sorb Hints for Use Ø Zinc ricinoleates are sensitive to water hardness and may precipitate Ø The use of a sequesting agent like phosphonates (HEDP, DTPMP etc. ) or Iminodisuccinate is highly recommended to stabilize the formulation. Ø Not recommended are chelators like EDTA, Polyphosphates, etc. because they inactivate the active side of the zinc in TEGO® Sorb. Ø TEGO® Sorb Products mainly remove malodour components containing either nitrogen and/ or sulfur: Ø Preservatives like Isothiazolinones contain sulfur and will partly inactivate the odour absorber. Isothiazolinones should not be used as a preservative ´Consumer Specialties | Business Line Household Care 13
