ADM-Ag03
ADM-Ag03 is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent with inorganic silver-zinc ion composite as active ingredient. It is mainly used to protect plastic, rubber and other products from erosion by bacteria and other microorganisms, and endow product surfaces with persistent antibacterial activity.
ADM-Ag03 releases silver ions and zinc ions slowly. Bacterial surfaces carry negative charges, so positively charged metal ions will be adsorbed onto bacteria, disrupting their electrolyte balance and damaging cell walls to kill bacteria. Meanwhile, metal ions penetrate into bacterial cells, chemically react with intracellular enzymes, suppress enzyme activity and block bacterial reproduction, thereby achieving thorough bactericidal effects.
1. Key Characteristics
- Broad-spectrum bacteriostasis, effectively inhibiting the growth of both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria
- Inorganic active components with thermal resistance up to 380°C, stable and long-lasting performance
- Excellent anti-discoloration performance. Special controlled-release technology regulates metal ion release rate to avoid discoloration during blending or long-term storage; superior UV resistance
- Outstanding dispersibility without agglomeration, easy to blend into various substrate materials
- Arsenic-free, tin-free and zero VOC emissions
- No bioaccumulation, free of persistent environmental pollution risks
- High safety & eco-friendliness, compliant with food-contact applications and EU environmental regulations
2. Application
ADM-Ag03 antibacterial powder is suitable for plastic and rubber products, including baby care goods, daily tableware, antibacterial medical devices, antibacterial silicone rubber keyboards and more.
