Abstract
It was found that incorporation of the antibacterial additives Monocid and Formacid-13 to an aqueous emulsion of Syntox 20M lubricant more efficiently inhibits microflora than formalin and KOH, reduces production wastes by decreasing the number of spinning machine shutdowns, and increases the productivity, i.e., is economically efficient. When formalin (toxicity class II) is replaced by the biocidal additives Monocid and Formacid (toxicity class IV), the health hazards of production decrease. Eliminating the use of KOH in the lubricant decreases the corrosion of the equipment.
