ALUCOMAT® Anti-Bacterial

Introduction

Although the modern medical technique has been continuously improving day by day that keeps average human life prolonged, the species of microorganism have never become less but grown stronger & stronger, invisibly appearing in our daily life that might cause severe diseases anytime.

The newly launched ALUCOMAT® Anti-Bacterial series adopts the latest Silver Ion Antimicrobial technology that incorporate silver ions into the coatings to offer continuous protection against bacterial growth. It kills most of the bacteria & fungus, helping to minimize the risk of infection hidden in the commercial or public environments, allowing the building owners to enhance practical safety and social responsibility at the same time.

Coating Properties

Type of Antimicrobial Agent	Inorganic Type	Organic Type
Typical Product	Metal ion antimicrobial Ex.: Silver ion antimicrobial	Chemical antimicrobial Ex.: chlorine dioxide
Antibacterial Mechanism	Destruction upon contact, blocking cell division & respiratory system	Dissolution failure, destroying cell membrane with chemical reaction
Antibacterial Capability	Broad-spectrum	Non-broad-spectrum
Durability	Long-acting, hard to decompose	Short-acting; easy to decompose
Safety	Low toxicity	Mostly high toxicity (proportional to bactericidal power)
Heat Resistance / Light Fastness	Do not decay when exposed to heat or light	Easy to decay when exposed to heat or light
Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria Replication	Not possible	Possible (May develop superbacteria)
Cost	High	Low

Advantages of Silver Ion Antimicrobial

Advantages	Description
Lasting efficacy	The built-in silver ions provide continual microbial reduction on the surface.
Durability	The protection remains effective during the expected lifetime of the coating if it’s properly maintained.
Antibiotic resistance free	The silver ions kill the bacteria to inhibit its replication.
Ease of maintenance	Cleaning with neutral detergent could avoid potential damage from maintenance.
