Antimicrobial & Antibacterial Agent
Antimicrobial antibacterial Introduction
Inorganic metal ion antibacterial agent uses sub-micron glass or zirconium phosphate as the carrier and silver ion, zinc ion and copper ion as the safe long-term antibacterial and anti-virus active ingredient. Zinc ion and copper ion are essential elements existing in human body, while silver ion is safe and harmless to the human body. By interfering with the cell walls, DNA, or proteins of bacteria, they achieve a broad-spectrum antibacterial effect and have a good inhibitory effect on various viruses containing protein capsid.
Compared with organic antibacterial agents, BX Antibac has better heat resistance, long-term release, chemical stability, and safety.
BX Antimicrobial Antibacterial Additives can be used in almost all the fields requiring anti-bacterial and anti-virus, such as plastics, rubber, coatings, elastomers, fibers, non-woven fabrics, films, plates, pipes, and ceramics.

Applications of Antibacterial agents
plastics
BX Antibac antibacterial agent can be directly mixed with rubber and plastic materials such as PP, PE, ABS, and silicone rubber to obtain antibacterial products by hot pressing or injection molding. They can be used for consumer goods, wearable products, electronic products, automotive interiors, household appliances and other products to realize product quality improvement and health upgrades.
Fibre Textile
BX Antimicrobial Antibacterial additive and masterbatch unique small-size spinning grade antibacterial agent, with excellent spinnability, can be used for the processing of the antibacterial long fiber, antibacterial staple fiber, antibacterial yarn, etc., and can also be directly used for the weaving of non-woven fabrics and melt-blown fabrics; BX Antibac antibacterial fiber and antibacterial yarn can be used for weaving blankets, rags, clothing, and other products.
Coating
BX Antibac agent has good dispersity and is widely used in coatings, inks, paints and other coating materials, imparting antibacterial properties to products by means of surface coating.
tableware
BX Antimicrobial agent has been proven to inhibit and kill a wide range of bacteria and viruses that are harmful to human health, such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, Salmonella murine, Helicobacter throttle, and Influenza VIRUS HINI.
· In terms of safety, BX Antibac antibacterial tableware solutions comply with national regulations on food contact materials.
shoes
·BX Antimicrobial agent is directly added to EVA, TPU and other plastic substrates to produce antibacterial footwear materials, such as slippers, leather shoes, and artificial leather.
