A synergistic microbicidal composition containing synergistic combinations of a phenolic compound selected the class consisting of chlorinated phenols, monosubstituted phenols, fused bicyclic phenols, isopropyl methyl catechols and monosubstituted catechols and an antimicrobial alcohol selected from the class consisting of propen-2yl-methyl-cyclohexanols, menthadiene alcohols and substituted cyclohexyl propyl-1,3-diols.

Microbial composition

A synergistic microbicidal composition comprising: (a) at least one microbicide selected from the group consisting of a monosubstituted phenol and an isopropyl methyl phenol; and (b) at least one microbicide selected from the group consisting of substituted cyclohexyl propyl-1,3-diols, propen-2yl-methyl cyclohexanols and menthadiene alcohols.

The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition and a method for disinfection involving the antimicrobial composition. It particularly relates to an antimicrobial composition for personal cleaning, oral care or hard surface cleaning applications. It was found that compositions comprising one or more monosubstituted phenols, terpineol and a carrier provide synergistic antimicrobial action. In a preferred aspect the composition also comprises 1 to 80%-wt of one or more surfactants.

Antimicrobial composition

The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition and a method for disinfection involving the antimicrobial composition. It particularly relates to an antimicrobial composition for personal cleaning, oral care or hard surface cleaning applications. It was found that compositions comprising thymol, selected propen-2-yl-methyl-cyclohexanols, and a carrier provide synergistic antimicrobial action. In a preferred aspect the composition also comprises 1 to 80%-wt of one or more surfactants.

A synergistic microbicidal composition containing a phenolic compound selected from the class consisting of chlorinated phenols, monosubstituted phenols, fused bicyclic phenols, isopropyl methyl catechols, and monosubstituted catechols and an antimicrobial alcohol selected from the class of menthadiene alcohols and other antimicrobial alcohols.

A synergistic microbicidal composition containing a selected from the class consisting of chlorinated phenols, fused bicyclic phenols, monosubstituted phenols and monosubstituted catechols and an antimicrobial alcohol selected from the class consisting of acyclic terpene alcohols.

A synergistic microbicidal composition containing: (a) at least one microbicide selected from the group consisting of isopropyl methyl phenols and monosubstituted phenols and (b) at least one microbicide selected from the group consisting of p-menthene alcohols, menthadiene alcohols and other antimicrobial alcohols of a specified structure.

The present invention relates to an antimicrobial composition and a method for disinfection involving the antimicrobial composition. It particularly relates to an antimicrobial composition for personal cleaning, oral care or hard surface cleaning applications. It was found that compositions comprising thymol, menthadiene alcohols and a carrier provide synergistic antimicrobial action.
