The application of anti - mildew agent in plastics
Release time:2019-11-20

Shanghai Ecolin Technology Co., Ltd. is a professional manufacturer of antimicrobial agents and mildew inhibitors. Plastic is in suitable condition, because microorganism especially mold's action, can change color produce mildew spot, grow mycelium even. Not only the appearance is damaged, but also the mechanical and electrical performance decline, service life is shortened, causing waste, and bring harm to the environmental health. Mold inhibitor is a chemical additive that can kill mold or inhibit its growth and protect polymer materials from mold erosion.

       

Plastics themselves are insensitive to microbial corrosion, but when various additives are added, they may encourage microbial breeding that leads to polymer degradation. Plasticizers, lubricants and even some heat stabilizers are food sources for bacterial and mold growth. The study showed that even in polyvinyl chloride, which was distributed only in the corrosion-free group, there was microbial growth on the surface of the plastic due to the contamination of the food source from the outside. Soft PVC is the most common polymer that is susceptible to microbial attack because it usually contains large amounts of the above additives.


Plastic formulations generally do not add anti-mildew agents, only in the product has the requirements of anti-mildew and antimicrobial agents.
