SILVER BIOCIDE
SILVER Biocide is a Silver Ion Active Product by ATAMAN Chemicals.
Ataman's Silver Biocide active is recommended as an antimicrobial agent in paints, plastics, films, paper, board, textile applications, detergents, disinfectants, hand gels, creams, etc.
Silver Biocide is effective against various microorganisms over a wide pH and temperature range.
Silver Biocide is used for its broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties in Healthcare products, e.g., textile materials.
Fiber containing Silver and Silver compounds are incorporated into finished textiles to produce antibacterial clothing.
Silver Biocide Chemical Name: 2% Silver Chloride, 8% titanium dioxide with surfactant
Ataman's aqueous Silver Chloride and titanium dioxide dispersion is a versatile Silver Biocide demonstrating a broad spectrum of activity – effective against bacteria, fungi, and yeast.
CHEMICAL TYPE: Silver Ion, Silver technology
The activity of Silver Biocide is derived from a revolutionary inorganic composite that allows a slow release of antimicrobial silver ions.
Silver Ion has long been used as a disinfectant; for example, the metal has been used in treating wounds and burns because of its broad-spectrum toxicity to bacteria and its reputation of limited toxicity to humans.
Silver Biocide is incorporated in textiles to inhibit bacteria growth and keep odor minimal.
Silver Biocide is incorporated in plastics, fabrics, paper, paint, and surface coatings.
Silver Biocide is an effective killing agent against a broad spectrum of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, including antibiotic-resistant strains.

Besides protection against bacteria, Silver Biocide also offers unique, natural, and wash-resistant indirect protection against dust mites.
Silver technology is especially suitable for bedding, mattresses, and home textile applications.
Especially where a high hygiene level is required, e.g., in hospitals and homes for the elderly and other healthcare facilities.
Antimicrobial Silver Ion protection helps improve freshness and support hygienic odor and freshness solutions for textiles.
Our silver ion polymer technology adheres to fiber surfaces for long-lasting antimicrobial textile protection.
When applied to a fabric, silver ion product is dilutable in textile treatment baths and forms an insoluble interpenetrating polymer network with silver ions.
Silver-based antimicrobials deliver silver particles to the fabric surface & rely on silver particle leaching or slow dissolution of poorly soluble silver salts to control bacteria.
