Water-based ink has been widely used in printing, writing, marking and other fields due to its environmental friendliness, non-toxicity and easy cleaning. However, the moisture and organic components in water-based ink are prone to mold growth, causing the ink to deteriorate and stink, which affects the printing quality and the service life of the product. Therefore, the application of fungicides in water-based ink is particularly important. IPBC (iodopropargyl butyl carbamate), as a highly efficient, low-toxicity and environmentally friendly fungicide, has demonstrated unique application value in the field of water-based ink.

Iodopropargyl butylcarbamate, INCI lodopropynyl butylcarbamate, or IPBC, is a halogenated unsaturated organic compound.

One of the more representative ones is phenoxyethanol, which is a good solvent and preservative. It is often used as a solvent in the preparation of preservatives to dissolve other oil-soluble preservatives, but it can be used as an emulsifier. Therefore, it is necessary to consider its impact on the product itself when using it. It should also be noted that phenoxyethanol is unstable at some high pH values.

IPBC has broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, especially for mold, yeast and algae, but its insoluble nature limits its use. Xinke-oil-soluble IPBC is a new product developed by the company
