A METHOD OF INHIBITING MICROORGANISMS WHICH COMPRISES APPLYING TO THE ENVIROMENT IN WHICH SUCH MICROORGANISMS ARE FOUND AMMONIA AND AMINOSUBSTITUTED HALOGENATED BIPHENYLS, AS WELL AS THE NITROGEN DERIVATIVES THEREOF SUCH AS QUENTERNARY AMMONIUM COMPOUNDS AMINE OXIDES, IMIDAZOLINES, AMIDES, ENAMINES, AMPHOLYTES, AND THE LIKE. THE AMMONIA AND AMINO HALOBIPHENYLS ARE PREPARED BY REACTING THE AMMONIA OR THE AMINE AND THE HALOBIPHENYL REACTANTS IN SUCH A MANNER THAT THE RATIO OF AMINE TO HALOBIPHENYL IS PREFERABLY LIMITED TO BETWEEN TWO AND FIVE MOLS OF AMINE TO EACH MOL OF HALOBIPHENYLo |
