Determination of Antibacteriality in Paints and Varnishes

What is Antibacterial Paint? What Are Its Features and Benefits?

As it is now known, microorganisms exist everywhere, from the air we breathe to the food we eat. Harmful microorganisms enter the human body mostly from the air we breathe or the surface we touch.

For this reason, many measures are taken to keep the environment clean. One of these measures is "Antibacterial Paint", which has recently attracted attention.

Antibacterial dyes are dyes that prevent bacterial growth and destroy existing bacteria. Antibacterial paints, especially used in baby rooms and children's rooms, have become an important product for the cleanliness and hygiene of the environment.

In general, the main goal is to reduce the microorganism load of the environment by preventing the growth of bacteria and mold and ensuring air permeability. Antibacterial paints and varnishes are used in furniture as well as walls.

Antibacterial paints go through some tests before they are available for sale. Bactericidal, fungicidal and mayacidal activities are checked within the scope of tests on paints and varnishes.

Dyeing processes are carried out at longer intervals due to the fact that the recently used dyes are wipeable. Using the same paint for a long time also increases the growth of bacteria over time.

Antibacterial dyes are mostly preferred in schools and hospitals outside the home. The use of antibacterial paints and varnishes can be an important method of protection in crowded environments where microorganisms are likely to grow.

Products that claim antibacterial properties must pass the necessary analyzes in accredited laboratories and prove their antibacterial properties.
