WHAT IS IT?
In a groundbreaking infection control innovation, a team of Korean scientists has created a novel material that, when applied to any surface, provides antibacterial/antiviral properties.
WHY IMPORTANT
Adding just a tiny amount of the additive to a range of resins increased the antibacterial properties to 99.99%. Antiviral properties were increased ten-fold in just two hours without modifying the existing products' optical, thermal, or mechanical properties. Additionally, the antibacterial/antiviral additive, made from non-toxic substances, does not contain organic antibacterial agents and nano compounds.
