Isothiazolinone is a highly effective, broad-spectrum, low-toxicity, non-oxidizing fungicide with a variety of roles and applications. The following is a summary of its main roles and uses:

1. Antimicrobial properties: Isothiazolinone inhibits the growth of microorganisms rapidly and irreversibly by destroying the DNA molecules in the bacterial cells, causing them to lose their ability to replicate, thus leading to cell death .
2. Application areas: it is widely used in oil fields, paper making, pesticides, cutting oil, leather, ink, dyes, tanning and other industries, as well as industrial water treatment, paints, lacquers, oils, etc .
3. Preservatives: In consumer products, especially cleaning products and cosmetics, isothiazolinone is used as a preservative to prolong the shelf life of products and protect consumers from bacteria and mold.
4. Environmental properties: Isothiazolinones are environmentally friendly as they naturally degrade to non-toxic substances at the concentrations used.
5. Health Hazard: Despite its advantages, isothiazolinone is allergic to some people and may cause skin redness, swelling, blisters and other symptoms. Therefore, caution needs to be exercised when using it and proper safety measures should be followed .

In industrial applications, isothiazolinone is used as a preservative to effectively inhibit the growth of microorganisms and maintain product stability and safety. However, it is also necessary to be aware of its potential health risks and take appropriate precautions when using it.
