Description:
TROVO®guard is produced by doping porous borosilicate glass particles with silver ions in a proprietary manufacturing process. The silver ions are transferred into the glass matrix by an ionic exchange process, creating a glass powder with long-term bactericidal and fungicidal action. Silver is nontoxic for higher life forms including humans. The fungicidal action can be intensified by additional doping with zinc ions.
Properties:
Porous, amorphous glass powder doped with silver ions.
Applications:
Moulded articles from hydrophilic plastic, fibres, films, silicone formulations, paints, coatings, polymer foams.
