COVID-19 has increased people\u2019s sensitivity about hygiene in their daily lives, and they are increasingly interested in materials with antibacterial properties. To answer the demand of the times, SynCloud offers a special antibacterial processing for insulation. Pyrogen is a special processing technique that exerts 99.9% antibacterial effects.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What are antibacterial products?<\/h4>\n

Antibacterial properties are abilities to resist germs and bacteria. Antibacterial products are chemically and\/or physically processed to prevent bacterial proliferation, which are commonly found in the sportwear, innerwear, bedding, and medical supplies markets. They not only fight externally-introduced bacteria but also prevent bacterial proliferation caused by bodily waste matters introduced to the textile to keep it comfort. Removing odor from bacterial growth is another benefit.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pyrogen\u2019s antibacterial mechanism<\/h4>\n

The ingredients used for the Pyrogen special processing include chitosan, which is extracted from chitin, a natural compound obtained from crustacean shells such as crabs and clams. Positive-charged chitosan interacts with negative-charged microorganisms, inactivating bacteria.<\/p>\n

Pyrogen\u2019s safety<\/h4>\n

There are many antibacterial chemicals available, but ones used for textile products should be proven safe as the products are in direct contact with the human body. Chitosan is a natural ingredient that is harmless for the human body. Pyrogen is Oeko-tex class 1 certified, hence applicable to baby products.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pyrogen\u2019s environment-friendliness<\/h4>\n

Chitosan is extracted from crustacean shells that would otherwise by disposed of as byproducts from the food industry, which helps reduce waste dumping. They also have less impact on the environment when discarded compared to organic compounds.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pyrogen\u2019s additional features<\/h4>\n

Chitosan absorbs moisture from the human body and turns it to thermal energy. In addition, Pyrogen also uses capsaicin extracted from chilis for greater exothermic properties.<\/p>\n

Consumers are increasingly aware of personal hygiene and health-related risks of particular microorganisms. As they seek a healthier and safer life, public interest in antibacterial properties is set to grow further.<\/p>\n
