Abstract

10, 10′-Oxybisphenoxarsine has been found to be outstanding in its activity against bacteria and fungi. Parallel tests with known fungistats for comparison (2,3,4,6-tetrachlorophenol and phenylmercuric acetate) have demonstrated its superior activity and persistence in an exterior acrylate paint film and in an asphalt coating. In view of its superior antimicrobial activity and its persistence, it can be used in applications in which there is no danger of its ingestion. Further field trials are in progress to evaluate 10, 10′oxybisphenoxarsine in paint, asphalt, wood, and in marine pilings.
