MIDLAND, MI - Dow Biocides, a business unit of The Dow Chemical Co. (Dow), has acquired the 3-iodo-2-propynyl butyl carbonate (IPBC) molecule marketing and registration assets of Sostram Corp., which are marketed under the Protram® trademark. The acquisition will allow Dow Biocides to accelerate the growth and geographic expansion of the IPBC molecule to customers who serve the paint and coatings, wood preservation, metalworking fluids, and building materials protection industries.

The Protram IPBC products will be transitioned to the FILMGUARD™ trademark for wood and building materials preservation markets and to the BIOBAN™ trademark for all other industries as registrations allow. The assets are expected to be fully integrated into Dow Biocides by the end of the first quarter 2008.
