Product Details

Ethyl maleic-anhydride.html">material/hexane-0.html">hexanediol does not irritate human skin but may cause chemical conjunctivitis. It works as a conventional repellent against chiggers, mosquitoes, black flies and other biting insects. Its repellent performance can be improved when compounded with dimethyl phthalate and indalone. The mixture of these three raw materials can effectively repel ticks and flies after being applied to clothing surfaces.2-Ethyl-1,3-hexanediol
