CHEMORECEPTION
Absorbzio: The New Malodor
Neutralizer

2. WHAT IS ABSORBZIO?
Absorbzio is a highly effective deodorant/malodor absorber based on the zinc salt of ricinoleic acid (present in nature in the form of triglycerides in the seeds of various plants such as the castor oil plant) associated with fresh and long lasting aromatic compounds.

3. HOW DOES ABSORBZIO WORK?
Absorbzio effectively eliminates malodors derived from ammonia, mercaptan, sulfur, smoke, fish, onion, and garlic through chemical binding. Once a bad odor is absorbed, it will not release, even when the substrate dries. A permanent binding of the odor takes place.

4. Unique ability to bind to amino nitrogen
WHY ZINC RICINOLEATE?
Unique ability to bind to amino nitrogen
and mercapto sulfur in active configuration. Superior to cyclodextrin in many ways.
With addition of carefully selected fragrance materials enhanced efficacy is achieved.

5. APPLICATION The 3D molecular structure exposes
active zinc binding sites in aqueous media.
Malodor bonds remain when the system dries.

6. WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED DOSAGE?
The recommended level of use is between 0.5% to 2.0%. However, Absorbzio must be tested in the base to assure maximum efficacy.

7. WHAT ARE THE MAIN APPLICATIONS OF ABSORBZIO?
Bad Odor to Neutralize Applications
• Smoke and smoke derivatives Air fresheners, candles, car fresheners, carpet and
upholstery cleaners.
• Urine and urine derivatives Cat litter, diapers, bowl cleaners.
• Perspiration Deodorants.
• Ammonia Bathroom, kitchen, floor, and industrial cleaners.
• Pet Odors Air fresheners, toiletries.
• Mercapto sulfur Sewage treatment plants,
composting facilities, waste
treatment, cutting oil (metal
cleaners).
• Fried Foods and Grease Odors Kitchen

8. DOES ABSORBZIO WORK IN ANY BASE?
Absorbzio is stable at PH from acid to alkaline. We offer Absorbzio in two versions ~ water or oil soluble. Absorbzio is efficient to neutralize ammonia base odors. However, each base may require a different dosage of Absorbzio according to the specificity of the odor to cover and the expected result.

9. IS ABSORBZIO SAFE AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?
Absorbzio is plant derived, non-toxic, and readily biodegradable.
