DTEA Original - Dow Chemical

The chemistry is from a family of known mineral flotation chemicals and corrosion inhibitors.

It was designed as an alkaline stable broad spectrum biocide and algaecide replacement which penetrated biofilm and also removed and tore off layered biofilm. Dow dropped the product in about 1999 at about the time it purchased the Angus and Union Carbide biocide lines. Original strategy called for marketing to Nalco, Betz, Calgon, Buckman, and related companies.  AWT, small, and medium companies were to buy through distributors. (The new chemistry is called DTEA II™ and is available on a near exclusive basis to AWT. small, and medium companies.)
