FERROSAN PA 01209 is an inorganic product based on Silver Salts, capable of controlling the growth of bacteria in coating
plastics and fibers. It disturbs the metabolic processes of microorganisms, disrupting their ability to grow and reproduce.
This is a Silver salt, with extremely fine particle size.
The Silver Salt contained in the masterbatch can be processed up to 600 C, without losing the antibacterial properties.
The active substance has been approved for:Gram-Positive Bacteria
StaphylocoCcus aureus
Streptococcus pyogenes
Bacillus subtilis
StaphylocoCCuS aureus (methicillin resistant)Gram-Negative Bacteria
Klebsiella pneumoniae
Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Escheria coli
Salmonella choleraesuis
Salmonella enteritidisNOTE: This list is intended as a general indication of some of the types of organisms that can be controlled. Some of the organisms on this list are associated with health issues. Ferro-Plast does not intend to imply that the use of FERROSAN PA 01209 will onfer health protection to people using treated articles.
In quantitative bacterial tests, polyethylene plaques containing 2% of FERROSAN PA 01209 showed bacterial count reductions of greater than 99.9% against Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pyogenes, EScheria coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Salmonella choleraesuis and Pseudomonas aeruginosa when compared to an untreated polyethylene sample.
