Description

  The present invention relates to a non-contact type fungicide composition and a package thereof.

  Generally, clothes are used in a cycle of “wear → washing → storage” after purchase, but it is important to protect (care) from troubles such as mold and odor that are anxious during storage. . Conventional antifungal agents are powders or crystals such as methyl paraoxybenzoate, ethyl paraoxybenzoate, benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, orthophenylphenol, or liquids such as 2-phenoxyethanol and benzalkonium chloride, In either case, the mold-proof performance cannot be sufficiently imparted unless the mold is brought into contact with the article to be protected.

On the other hand, techniques related to non-contact type antifungal agents have been disclosed, but there are problems such as insufficient antifungal performance and strong base odor, making it difficult to use alone. Patent Document 1 discloses a technique related to a composition for spatial disinfection containing glycol ether. Patent Document 2 discloses a technique related to a fender crayon. Patent Document 3 discloses a technique related to an antifungal spray. Further, Patent Document 4 discloses a technique related to a wood preservative, an ant, an antifungal agent, and a wood treatment method using the same.

A mold suspension of × 10 ⁶ to 1 × 10 ⁷ cells / mL was prepared.

(2) Preparation of mold test piece Cotton melias cloth cut to 3 cm x 3 cm and black dyed cotton broad cloth were sterilized (autoclave: 2 atm (202650 Pa), 125 ° C / 15 min), and 90 mm plastic as shown in Fig. 1 Two pieces each were allowed to stand on Petri dish 1 (Nissui Pharmaceutical, Nissui A Petri dish, sterilized shallow mold). 200 μL of a 2.4% potato dextrose broth aqueous solution (manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd.) sterilized on each test cloth was applied, and 100 μL of the above mold suspension was applied as a mold test piece 2, 2 ′.

(3) Mold prevention test A cloth 4 (cotton Melias cloth, 1.5 cm × 1.5 cm) impregnated with the non-contact type mold prevention agent composition described in Table 1 was applied to the center of the lid 3 of the petri dish at 25 ° C. After culturing at 100% RH for 7 days, the growth state of the mold was visually observed and evaluated based on the following five-stage criteria. Among them, those with a rating of-and + suppress the growth of mold, and the antifungal effect can be recognized remarkably. In addition, when the growth state of mold | fungi was observed similarly without sticking the cloth which impregnated the non-contact-type antifungal agent composition on the petri dish lid | cover, it confirmed that the antifungal effect was not recognized. The results are shown in Table 1.

A composition-impregnated nonwoven fabric was prepared. In the plastic storage box (64 cm × 40 cm × 23 cm, made by Yoshikawa, Neo Tenor Middle M23) having an internal volume of about 60 L, 1.7 g of the non-contact type fungicide composition-impregnated nonwoven fabric and the same mold test as in Example 1 The pieces 2 and 2 'were left standing with the petri dish 1 removed. The mold was cultured at 25 ° C. and 100% RH for 7 days, and the antifungal effect was determined in the same manner as in Example 1. As a result, it had fungicidal performance against both Aspergillus.niger and Cladosporium.

In an Example, it is the schematic of the petri dish used for evaluation of mold prevention performance.
