Description
BRONIDOX (CAS 30007-47-7), also sold under the trade names Bronidox L and Microcide I, is a bromine-based heterocyclic biocide belonging to the nitrodioxane chemical class. It carries no assigned E-code and is identified under EC number 250-001-7 with the molecular formula C4H6BrNO4.
In personal care formulations, BRONIDOX functions as a preservative by releasing formaldehyde at controlled rates, disrupting microbial cell function to inhibit bacterial and fungal growth. It is also applied in industrial water treatment systems and in coatings, adhesives, and sealants to prevent microbial degradation of product matrices during storage and service life.
BRONIDOX is supplied as a liquid concentrate under the Bronidox L designation and is subject to REACH registration requirements within the European Union. Procurement teams should verify current Biocidal Products Regulation status for intended application categories, as restrictions on formaldehyde-releasing preservatives continue to evolve across EU member states.
