The technology of antimicrobial can be used to reduce the growth and spread of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms on the touchscreen surface.
The following are some common antimicrobial touch screen technologies:
Antimicrobial Coating: Special antimicrobial coatings are used to cover the surface of the touch screen, and these coatings usually contain antimicrobial agents such as silver ions and copper ions. These antimicrobial agents can kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria, thus achieving an antimicrobial effect.
Nanosilver Technology: Nanosilver particles have excellent antimicrobial properties, and the antimicrobial effect can be achieved by embedding nanosilver particles into the touchscreen coating or material. The silver ions released from the nanosilver particles can destroy the cell walls of bacteria, thus achieving antibacterial effect.
Antimicrobial Glass: Antimicrobial glass is a special glass material used on the surface of touch screens to which an antimicrobial agent is added. This antimicrobial agent can inhibit the growth and spread of bacteria by releasing ions or bactericidal molecules.
Application of antimicrobial touch screen technology:
Antibacterial touch screen can be applied to buses, trains, subways and other public transport such as ticket vending machines, station information enquiry equipment, security check instruments and so on. These devices are often touched by a large number of people, and antimicrobial touch screens can reduce the spread of bacteria and viruses on shared devices.
Touch screen devices in hospitals and other medical institutions are susceptible to bacterial and viral contamination. Antibacterial touch screens can be used in operating theatres, emergency rooms, and doctor's diagnostic equipment to help prevent cross infection.
Antibacterial touch screen can be used in self-service ordering machines, cashier systems and other catering equipment, which can effectively reduce the growth of bacteria on the surface of the touch screen and provide a more hygienic dining environment.
In shopping malls, supermarkets, convenience stores and other retail places, antimicrobial touchscreens can be used in self-payment terminals, product enquiry devices, etc., providing a safer shopping experience.
Antibacterial touch screen devices in schools, universities and training institutes, such as whiteboards and interactive teaching devices, help to maintain the hygiene and health of students and teachers.
In offices and meeting rooms, antimicrobial touch screens can be used in shared equipment such as printers, photocopiers and projectors to reduce the risk of germ transmission.
