The last Vacuum Surtec treatment: photocatalysis.
The rooms of certain hospitals are already surfaced in "self-clean" ceramic tiles, using an "urban photocatalysis" process that in principle imitates natural photosynthesis. It all commences with sunlight: this activates the photosensitive coating of the surface exposed to the environment, triggering a catalytic demolition action of airborne pollutants in direct contact with MetalOx-coated materials.
With the MetalOx process, coatings can be achieved which, apart from acting upon a vast range of harmful oxidisable compounds present in the air, demonstrate outstanding antibacterial action, for example against coliform bacteria (e.g. E. coli) typically present in organically-polluted water, and destroy nitrogen oxides (the notorious NOx present in high quantities also in domestic environments such as bathrooms and kitchens) transforming them into insignificant traces of innocuous compounds.
MetalOx coating action is gradual, constant and unlimited in that the Vacuum Surtec compounds, acting as catalysts, do not deteriorate; their effectiveness is directly proportional to the quantity of surface coated.
The titanium bioxide coating patented by Vacuum Surtec has been shown to combat around 50% of gas pollutants in concentrations normally present in a room atmosphere, by coating just 15% of the surface with MetalOx (or similar compounds).
MetalOx coating maintenance is quick and simple, requiring only occasional cleaning according to methods recommended by us at the time of application.
The above can also be achieved on your components, providing the anti-pollution characteristics described above.
