HOME    Feedstock Updates    Methylenebismorpholine (MBM, CAS 5625-90-1): An Efficient Microbiocide for Metalworking Fluids

In the industrial metalworking sector, metalworking fluids are crucial for ensuring smooth production processes. However, microbial contamination constantly threatens their performance and service life. In this context, Methylenebismorpholine (abbreviated as MBM, CAS: 5625-90-1), as an efficient bactericide, plays an indispensable role.

 

As a morpholine derivative, MBM possesses a unique chemical structure that grants it powerful antimicrobial properties. In metalworking fluids, it functions primarily by disrupting the cell membrane structure of microorganisms and interfering with their normal physiological activities, thereby inhibiting their growth and reproduction. Whether bacteria, fungi, or yeasts, they struggle to survive or proliferate in fluids treated with MBM, effectively preventing fluid deterioration due to microbial contamination.

 

 

The advantages of MBM in metalworking fluids are significant. First, it is a broad-spectrum bactericide capable of targeting multiple types of microorganisms simultaneously, making it widely applicable. This means that regardless of the microbial threats faced by metalworking fluids, MBM provides reliable protection. Second, MBM exhibits excellent compatibility with other components in metalworking fluid formulations. It does not adversely react with additives such as surfactants, ensuring the stability of the entire system without compromising the fluid's performance.

 

Furthermore, MBM offers great flexibility. It can be used alone, leveraging its strong antimicrobial efficacy to address general microbial contamination, or it can be combined with other bactericides to enhance its effectiveness, particularly in harsh environments where microbial contamination is severe.

 

In practical applications, the performance of MBM is remarkable. Metalworking fluids treated with MBM effectively inhibit microbial growth, significantly extending the fluid's service life and reducing replacement frequency, thereby lowering production costs for enterprises. Additionally, it helps maintain the fluid's stability under adverse conditions such as humid environments, preventing equipment failures caused by microbial contamination and ensuring the smooth operation of machining equipment. This, in turn, improves the precision and quality of metalworking processes.

 

 

It is worth highlighting that with the rise of domestically produced MBM bactericides in China, they demonstrate clear advantages in terms of cost-effectiveness, supply cycle, and after-sales service. Compared to imported antifungal agents, domestic MBM offers more competitive pricing, faster delivery, and more convenient after-sales support. Moreover, its performance has been proven in practical applications to be on par with imported alternatives. For many enterprises, choosing domestic MBM bactericides is undoubtedly a cost-effective solution to replace imported antifungal agents.
