Antibacterial treatment "Anti-Bac"
A treatment that sterilizes E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus with ultra-fine unevenness! Since it is not a coating, it does not peel off, and there are no resistant bacteria as no chemicals are used.
The micro-dimple treatment creates uneven surfaces that are comparable in size to general bacteria. For example, bacteria can move freely on a stainless steel mirror surface, but on stainless steel treated with micro-dimples, the formed unevenness obstructs their ability to move and act freely. Additionally, the uneven surfaces are thought to inhibit flagellar movement, leading to self-damage in bacteria, which results in antibacterial effects.
basic information
In 2012, a technical university in Australia announced in Nature that the nanometer-scale pillar structures present on the surfaces of cicadas and dragonflies have antibacterial properties. When observed from the side, they appear pillar-like, and when viewed from above, they look like fine irregularities. The antibacterial effect is achieved by creating these nanometer-scale irregularities through micro-dimple processing. In antibacterial efficacy evaluation tests (conducted by MISTEC, Kanagawa Prefectural Institute of Industrial Technology), it was found that out of 330,000 E. coli, almost none remained after 8 hours. The antibacterial activity value exhibited an astonishing effect of over 3.0.
