Material Safety
The solution of Apatite Titanium Dioxide (TiO2 ) is manufactured by patented method instead of a mixture of water, TiO2 particles and apatite. It is used in our VOC control service and disinfection coating. TiO2 has also being commonly used in food and garment for many years, such as : Bread, candies, sweets and chewing gums, and clothes. It is safe to human and it has significant performance in antibacterial and antivirus. FDA also recognised it as safe additive in food.
SN-568 passed mandatory safety tests by PIAJ , tests included :
( PIAJ : Photocatalyst Industry Association of Japan)
-
Peroral Accute Toxicity : LD50 > or = 2,000mg/kg
-
Primary Skin Irritation Test : No irritation or mild irritation
-
Mutation Test : Negative mutagenicity
-
Skin Sensitization Test* : Negative
*- This is an additional confirmation of the product that may normally be used in a state in which they have long-term, direct skin contact.
Nano-apatite Photocatalyst SN-568 performance data
and antibacterial effect
The results of testing the antibacterial effect of the SN-568 photocatalyst against Staphylococcus aureus are shown below. The number of Staphylococcus aureus was reduced to nearly 1 in 100,000 after 8 hours by irradiation with white fluorescent light, and the antibacterial activity value was 4.8 calculated from the measured values. A value of 4.8 indicates that the new-type photocatalyst SN-568 has an excellent antibacterial effect because it is defined as having an antibacterial effect when the antibacterial activity value is 2.0 or more (99% or more death rate).
See The Difference After SN-568 was coated on a ceramic ball surface
TiO2 is commonly applied in clothes / Oral care products.
/ Oral care products.
Test Result from JFRL, SN-568 has well performance in antibacterial and antivirus.
The reason why PIAJ use this standard to test antivirus performance, please be noted the remark *4.
