1. An aqueous biocide composition, containing the following components:
(a) 9 wt. % to 11.5 wt. % 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one;
(b) a dissolved alkalizing agent, containing 0.95 to 1.05 mol sodium and potassium hydroxide, each based on one mol of the 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one present as component (a), and
(c) more than 60 wt. % water,
characterized in that the composition:
