1 3.1 Introduction: situation of R&D in material protection
Active ingredients are without any doubt the most important factor of success in the material protection business. Basically, the whole business relies on the availability of biocides which combine high efficacy and good application properties on the one hand with low cost and promising ecotoxicological properties on the other hand.
However, looking into the marketplace you have to realize that a lot of the important market products of today are based on relatively “old” biocides which have been introduced into the market many years ago.
What are the reasons? First of all, the life cycle of active ingredients in material protection is certainly much longer compared to active ingredients used in pharmaceutical or agrochemical applications.
More important are the increasing R&D and registration cost which are necessary to find and develop new biocides which will meet the high standards required nowadays.
