This is effectively the same as a soaping or detergent effect. The company has anti-bacterial test results to BS EN ISO 22196 available showing a positive resistance against E-Coil ATCC 8739, MRSA NCTC 12493, Klebsiella Pnuemoniae ATCC 4352 and Streptococcus pyogenes ATCC 19615 at various incubation times (30min / 1 hr / 24 hrs). Although testing is not possible against a Viruses, there are also scientific papers suggesting that silver nanoparticles are active against several type of viruses. CDS now offers this silver nanoparticle coating protection in two formats; firstly, as a new build with the coating applied to the surface of the glass by the glass manufacturer. Secondly, the company can supply the CDS-ABF technology in a film format which can be applied to existing product, either as a factory upgrade or even onsite installation. The film is available in two formats, both have a 2H anti-scratch, anti-finger print surface finish (naturally with the silver nanoparticle anti-bacterial coating), but the surface finish can be either optically clear (OC) or anti-glare (AG). The finished film is a 0.12mm thick including base silicone adhesive, PET layer and surface hard coat layer with silver nanoparticles. It is supplied with a rear release film for simple application and a surface protection tape. Each film is precisely CNC cut to the exact shape and size, and can include radiused corners, cut-outs etc.
