| Industry | Application | Process |
|---|---|---|
| Water Treatment | Biocide for industrial recirculating cooling water systems | Dosed into the recirculating water system at a typical concentration of 0.5–5 mg/L; exerts broad-spectrum biocidal activity by disrupting microbial cell membranes |
| Healthcare | Disinfectant for medical devices, hand sanitizer, preservative in oral care products | Formulated as a 0.05–0.2% aqueous solution for immersion disinfection (contact time ≥5 minutes) or surface wiping; used as a stable preservative in mouthwashes and similar products at concentrations ≤0.005% |
| Textile Printing & Dyeing | Antimicrobial finishing agent | Applied together with crosslinking agents (e.g., DMDHEU) via pad-dry-cure processing to immobilize PHMB onto fiber surfaces, conferring durable antimicrobial properties to textiles |
| Personal Care Products | Preservative in shampoos, body washes, and wet wipes | Added at 0.001–0.003% concentration within pH 5.5–7.5 to inhibit bacteria and fungi, thereby enhancing microbiological stability of formulations |
| Agriculture | Seed treatment agent and post-harvest fruit and vegetable preservative | Applied as seed coating (0.01–0.05% solution) or fruit/vegetable dip treatment (0.005–0.02% solution) to suppress proliferation of pathogenic bacteria (e.g., *Erwinia* spp., *Pseudomonas* spp.) |
| Test Item | Common Testing Method | Method Overview |
|---|---|---|
| Appearance | Visual Inspection | Observe the color, state, and clarity of the sample. PHMB-HCl is typically a colorless to pale yellow transparent liquid or white to off-white powder. |
| Identification Test | Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR) | Compare the infrared spectra of the sample with that of the reference standard to confirm consistency in characteristic functional groups (e.g., guanidino, C-N bonds). |
| Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (¹H-NMR) | Analyze the chemical environment of hydrogen atoms in the molecular structure to verify structural units and end-group characteristics of the polymer. | |
| Content Determination | Ultraviolet-Visible Spectrophotometry (UV-Vis) | Utilize the characteristic absorption of PHMB at specific wavelengths (approximately 230–240 nm) to determine its concentration via a standard curve method. |
| Non-Aqueous Titration | In a non-aqueous medium, perchloric acid is used as the titrant with crystal violet as an indicator to measure the free base content in the hydrochloride salt. | |
| pH Value | pH Meter Measurement | Dilute the PHMB solution to a certain concentration and measure its acidity or alkalinity using a calibrated pH meter; it should generally fall within the range of 3.5–6.0. |
| Solution Clarity and Color | Visual Color Comparison / Turbidimeter Method | Prepare the sample into a specified concentration solution, compare its color with a standard color reference, and use a turbidimeter to assess solution clarity. |
| Moisture Content | Karl Fischer Method | Suitable for solid samples, this method accurately measures moisture content to avoid affecting the calculation of active components. |
| Viscosity | Rotational Viscometer Method | Measure the viscosity of liquid PHMB solutions at specific temperatures to reflect polymer molecular weight and fluidity. |
| Heavy Metal Content | Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS) or ICP-MS | Determine residual heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, mercury, and cadmium after sample digestion to ensure compliance with pharmacopoeia or industry safety standards. |
| Microbial Limits | Microbial Limit Test (Chinese Pharmacopoeia) | Examine aerobic bacterial count, mold, and yeast counts, as well as controlled organisms (e.g., Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, etc.). |
| Ethylene Oxide/Propylene Oxide Residue | Gas Chromatography (GC) | If relevant epoxides are used in production, detect their residue levels using headspace injection GC analysis. |
| Polymer Molecular Weight Distribution | Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC/SEC) | Determine the number-average molecular weight (Mn), weight-average molecular weight (Mw), and polydispersity index (PDI) of PHMB to evaluate polymer uniformity. |
