EC Conference Biocides and Alternatives 2024
![](https://www.european-coatings.com/app/uploads/2023/11/AdobeStock_330132813-1024x683.jpeg)
Biocides are used in coatings in order to prevent microbial growth, ensuring the longevity, aesthetic integrity, and safety of the coated surfaces. They work by inhibiting the growth and reproduction of microorganisms, such as bacteria and fungi, thereby preventing their detrimental effects on the coated surface.
Concerns about environmental impact, potential toxicity, and the development of microbial resistance are factors that speak against the use of biocides in coatings. Therefore, the search for alternatives is a main focus of research. In this digital conference, experts will report on the latest developments and innovations. Stay up-to-date and ask your questions – no travel required.
