Maxome IPBC, a halogenated carbamate fungicide. It is best known for its exceptional efficacy against fungi and mold, making it a highly effective and specialized preservative in wood protection, coatings, and personal care products. Beyond this, it serves important functions as a material protector in industrial applications such as adhesives and metalworking fluids, and as a antimicrobial agent in household products, though its use in leave-on cosmetics and oral products is strictly regulated due to sensitization concerns.
