At present, medicine has proven that many viruses can survive on plastic, metal, and cardboard surfaces. The plastic can be surface treated to inhibit the survival of the virus.
Swiss masterbatch manufacturers have developed PET and PA plastic materials with strong antiviral effects, which can also potentially improve product sustainability and reduce people's wasteful behavior.
Anti-viral plastic masterbatch uses exclusive technology to integrate anti-viral additives directly into the polymer. The anti-viral effect is not only stable during use, but can be maintained even after washing. This is because antiviral additives are always present on the surface of the product and will not be released into the environment.
Using feline coronavirus and H1N1 influenza virus to test plastic products, making antiviral plastic into fabrics and injection molded parts and films, the results showed that 98% of feline coronaviruses were eliminated within the first two hours.
In the current epidemic period, personal protective equipment, especially masks, has become an increasingly common item. At present, both disposable and reusable masks face the problem of handling and maintaining fabric masks.
Using fabrics containing anti-viral masterbatch to make textile masks can effectively reduce virus pollution even if they are not cleaned after each use.
In addition, in addition to making personal protective equipment (such as masks, gowns, gloves, etc.), antiviral plastics can also be widely used on various surfaces that are easily contaminated, such as medical equipment, vehicle interiors, textiles, door handles, and light switches. , Packaging products, etc.
I believe we will be able to successfully fight the virus!
