The difference between "inorganic antibacterial agents" and "organic antibacterial agents."
Introduction to the antibacterial properties and heat resistance of inorganic and organic antibacterial agents!
At Shinanen Zeomic, we handle the inorganic antibacterial agent "Zeomic," which combines "silver ions" and "zeolite." Compared to many organic antibacterial agents, which have limited types of antibacterial effects, inorganic antibacterial agents are effective against a wide range of bacteria, molds, and yeasts. They do not decompose or change even at resin molding temperatures (up to 350°C). Additionally, there is no leaching due to organic solvents, and they exhibit antibacterial properties over a long period. They can also be handled in powder form like conventional pigments. **Features of Inorganic Antibacterial Agents:** - **Antibacterial Properties:** Slow-acting, effective against a wide range of bacteria, molds, and yeasts. - **Heat Resistance:** No decomposition or change at resin molding temperatures (up to 350°C). - **Sustainability:** No leaching due to organic solvents, exhibiting antibacterial properties over a long period. - **Processability:** Can be handled in powder form like conventional pigments. - **Safety:** Most contain silver as the active ingredient, which has a high safety profile. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*

basic information
**Characteristics of Organic Antibacterial Agents** ■ Antibacterial Properties: Many have immediate effects, but the types of effectiveness are limited. ■ Heat Resistance: Generally, some may evaporate or decompose at resin molding temperatures. ■ Persistence: Easily evaporates or decomposes due to water, heat, etc., leading to reduced effectiveness. ■ Processability: Methods that apply heat during processing may risk evaporation or dispersion. ■ Safety: The toxicity of the antibacterial agents themselves is low, but complete safety has not been fully confirmed. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
