About Algaecide

Chemtex Speciality Limited manufactures Algaecide or algae removing or preventing chemicals include a range of products that are of oxidising or non oxidising chemistries. The most effective Algaecide are compouds of quaternary ammonium salts. Quaternary ammonium cations, also known as quats, serves as positively charged polyatomic ions. Unlike the ammonium ion NH4+ and the primary, secondary, or tertiary ammonium cations, the quaternary ammonium cations are permanently charged, independent of the pH of their solution. Quaternary ammonium salts or quaternary ammonium compounds are salts of quaternary ammonium cations with an anion. Specially as an antimicrobial agent or Algaecide, quaternary ammonium salts had made its presence felt. Certain quaternary ammonium compounds, especially those containing long alkyl chains, are used as disinfectants. Examples are benzethonium chloride, benzalkonium chloride, methylbenzethonium chloride, cetylpyridinium chloride, cetalkonium chloride, cetrimonium, cetrimide, dofanium chloride, tetraethylammonium bromide, didecyldimethylammonium chloride and domiphen bromide. Quats are believed to act as an Algaecide by disrupting the cell membrane. Quaternary ammonium compounds are lethal to a wide variety of organisms except endospores.
