Fast efficacy on major malodors
Itaconix ONZ 400 binds quickly to volatile malodor molecules and prevents them from being detected by the human nose.
Itaconix ONZ 400 neutralizes odors caused by sulfides, mercaptans, thioethers, amines, ammonia, foot and body odor.
Works in everyday homecare products
Itaconix ONZ 400 has more concentrated odor neutralization power and slightly better ionic stability than Itaconix ONZ 100, for use in the most demanding formulations. It is the best choice for odor control in liquid consumer detergents for active sportswear and in institutional surface and carpet cleaners.
Independent laboratory testing confirms efficient reduction of body and cat urine odors with both Itaconix ONZ 400 and Itaconix ONZ 100 at an equivalent zinc activity of 0.05wt%.
Comparison of ONZ 400 to other ONZ products. ONZ 400 is an 85% plant-based liquid odor neutralizer.
