1 Introduction
The subject ‘Application of Microbicides for the Storage Protection of Mineral Dispersions’ is of ever-increasing interest for scientists and industrialists and includes many challenges for the mineral slurry producer and user. Increasing conversion from dry pigment handling to water-based dispersions is taking place over a wide range of production applications, for example, papermaking filler products and coatings formulations in both the paper and paint industries.
The requirements for the delivery of preserved slurried products begins from the moment the mineral is extracted or synthetically produced. The process conditions are as important regarding bacterial colonisation and control as the delivery and storage strategy of the end-product itself. This article attempts to give a brief insight into the background issues and procedures needed to provide an environment of “good housekeeping”, essential in optimising the microbiological control needed for preservation and...
