SilverClear is an antibacterial solution with silver ion as the main component. It has been certified by US EPA (Registration Number: 84630-2) at present. The working principle is as follows: Molecules release two types of ions. Positive molecules can tear the protective wall of bacteria rapidly. The smaller silver ions then enter and destroy the outer membrane of bacteria to destroy the respiratory system and DNA of bacteria, After AATCC 100 detection, more than 99.9% of the bacteria can be eliminated quickly. After up to 100 times of washing, it still has excellent anti-bacteria and sterilization effect. It can be widely used in cotton, polyester, nylon, acrylic and other fabrics.

Physical & chemical properties:             

Appearance: Milky white liquid

Ionicity: Cationic

pH: 2.5-4.0

Solubility: Soluble in water

Compatibility: Good compatibility with resins, adhesives, fluorocarbon water proofing agents and other finishing agents.   

Usage:

It can be used after the following sequence of tests:

1. SilverClear is used for padding and coating, with a liquid rate of 30% - 60%. For the better antibacterial effect, SilverClear is recommended to be added in the last bath (before drying). The dosage is 2% - 5%. If the dosage of the product is increased, the antibacterial effect and washing resistance will also be improved.

2. Spray method. SilverClear can be applied as a diluted solution (20% or more) or original solution. Since the product does not contain any harmful solvents, there is no need for special ventilation device when preparing SilverClear working solution or during usage. Of course, local occupational health requirements must be observed. In order to obtain the better antibacterial performance, SilverClear should be used in the final finishing step.

3. Drying and baking in order to obtain the better washing resistance, the treated fabric needs to be dried at 120℃ and then baked at 170℃-180℃ for more than 20 seconds.

Characteristics:

1. Effectively kills bacteria, fungi and molds, so as to keep textiles fresh and odorless.

2. Does not affect the hand feel and luster of the product.

3. It is easy to use and can be used with other products without additional processing technology.

4. Suitable for fiber, yarn knitted/woven fabrics, paper filter materials, woven fabrics, non-woven fabrics.

5.Registered and certified by EPA.

Storage:

1. Stir evenly before use. Make sure that there is no sediment at the bottom of the container by more vigorous stirring or stirring (vortex). An electric stirrer with a 3-Blade propeller can be used for better mixing. Try to avoid creating too many bubbles. SilverClear solution should be stored in a bucket, in a cool and dry environment, and avoid strong ultraviolet radiation.

2. It is forbidden to expose to the sun or place in high temperature.
