Abstract
A method of inhibiting microorganisms by the application of a compound formed by the condensation of dimethylamine and epichlorohydrin in about equimolar proportions. A high molecular weight condensation product, utilizable as a non-foaming anti-microbial and preservative agent, which is prepared by reacting equimolar proportions of dimethylamine and epichlorohydrin at a relatively low temperature and then maintaining the mixture for a predetermined period of time at a relatively high temperature.
