Hyamine 1622 microbiocide is a crystalline quaternary ammonium compound. Hyamine 1622-50
percent is a 50 percent active concentrate. These compounds are effective in low concentrations
against a wide variety of microorganisms.
In suitable formulations the Hyamine products provide bactericidal and deodorant action. The
crystalline form of Hyamine 1622 is readily soluble in water and other solvents. It can be
formulated into powdered or liquid products for industrial or household sanitizers and
disinfectants. Hyamine 1622 may also be useful in veterinary and proprietary pharmaceutical
products as preservatives or antimicrobial agents for topical applications. Hyamine germicides
are not corrosive to environmental surfaces when used according to directions.
Applications
Hyamine 1622 Crystals are powdered crystalline quaternary germicides and are especially
suited for formulating dry powdered products. By mixing Hyamine crystals with inert compatible
diluents, powdered disinfectant or sanitizer formulations can be prepared.
Convenience and exactness of dosage contribute to the popularity of tablets. Hyamine 1622
Crystals can be made into sanitizing tablets containing up to 50 percent active quaternary. As
noted above, this product has a relatively low hard-water ceiling, and sequestering agents
should be employed to improve the efficiency of the product in hard water. The tablet
manufacturer should evaluate his final composition by the AOAC Germicidal and Detergent
Sanitizer Test to assure proper sanitizing performance in his marketing area. Other excipients,
such as lactose, ammonium sulfate, sodium bicarbonate, citric acid and other highly soluble
substances, may be used to optimize the physical properties of the finished tablet.
Specialty Applications
Disinfectant formulations for surgical instruments, antibacterial handwash, barber’ s tools, and
dentures can be prepared in the form of aqueous concentrates, powders, or tablets. A
quaternary concentration of 1000 ppm is required for instrument disinfection.
Hyamine 1622 finds wide use in the veterinary field as a disinfectant and a deodorant.
Tinctures and lotions may be considered for topical antiseptics and for storage of sterile
instruments.
Pharmaceutical formulations are subject to the New Drug Regulations of the Federal Food, Drug
and Cosmetic Act, as amended, pertaining to the safety and effectiveness of such products.
