Antibacterial Paint
Silver is a strong antibacterial agent which kills any germs which come into contact with it. A few years ago, some researchers came up with a relatively cheap way to make nano-size particles of silver, which has lead to lots of new products with the tag ‘antibacterial’. These new products include pens at the bank, handles on public doors, and various other communal objects.
Paint is the newest product to bring in silver nanoparticles for antibacterial properties. While pens and door handles may keep germs from transferring from one person to another, an entire room of antibacterial walls could significantly reduce the overall germ count in any room.
Now that there is a very easy and cheap way to make practically any device kill germs, I bet we will see many more handheld and communal objects come out that are antibacterial. What else would you like to keep germ-free?
