What is antibacterial stainless steel materials ?

 Antibacterial mechanism, characteristics, application and development status of various antibacterial stainless steel materials (including antibacterial stainless steel sheet coil adding copper and silver element, surface coated antibacterial stainless steel, antibacterial composite stainless steel plate): Adding a certain amount of antibacterial metal elements like Cu, Ag, Zn, etc. and controlling the casting, forging, rolling and heat treatment process, to make the antibacterial metal elements in the stainless steel matrix with a certain size, shape, uniform do dispersion precipitation and to ensure the volume percentage of precipitated phase, without reducing the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of ordinary stainless steel products, stainless steel plate coil get its excellent antibacterial performance.

The rise of the background

Because of the impact of pathogenic Escherichia coli O-157 on Japanese society in 1996 and the impact of SARS epidemic on Chinese health service in 2003, people's health awareness has greatly improved after crisis, and the demand for health and environmental protection will also increase significantly. Therefore, it is imperative to accelerate the development of antimicrobial stainless steel sheet materials and products industry.

The successful development of antimicrobial stainless steel coil provides a broad space for the development of antimicrobial stainless steel products. The development potential of antibacterial stainless steel products is huge and the market prospect is very broad. Many domestic manufacturers have expressed a strong interest in antibacterial stainless steel, and the research group is actively seeking support to carry out pilot tests, and strive to convert the results into commodities as soon as possible.

Industry application

The home appliance industry applies antibacterial stainless steel materials by the leading domestic home appliance enterprises, such as Pioneer and Haier, and the international famous manufacturers such as Electrolux and Siemens, which promote the industrialization of antimicrobial stainless steel products and have become popular brands of antimicrobial products in the market.

In the tableware industry, the full-material stainless steel antibacterial tableware researched and developed by the Institute of Metal Research and Chinese Academy of Sciences is made of antibacterial stainless steel raw materials the whole, including stainless steel coil, stainless steel sheet plate, stainless steel pipe tube, stainless steel bars. At present, full-material antibacterial stainless steel materials have been applied to ASSTEC antibacterial tableware, which has durable and excellent antibacterial properties. The killing rate of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus is above 99%, and it still maintains good antibacterial properties after surface wear.

In the building materials industry, Shengda flooring, Pesteo PVC pipe, Wei 'an PP-R aluminum plastic pipe, Xianyang pipe industry aluminum plastic pipe, new super steel plastic pipe, and Emerodan, Marco Polo ceramic tile, Na Mei coating, Nippon coating, PU polyleaven wood coating, nitro (NC) wood coating and other antibacterial products have been developed and released in the market.

Alloy type antibacterial stainless steel 

Alloy type antibacterial stainless steel refers to the stainless steel sheet plate coils with good antibacterial properties by adding antibacterial metal elements in the process of smelting conventional stainless steel coil and then undergoing special antibacterial heat treatment. This stainless steel material still has excellent antibacterial properties even after wear.

The characteristics of antibacterial stainless steel coil

Broad-spectrum antibacterial activity: the killing rate of Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus is above 99%;

Antibacterial durability: antibacterial stainless steel sheet coil still maintains good antibacterial properties after surface wear;

Human safety: antibacterial stainless steel pipe and stainless steel bar are fully in line with the national technical standards for toxicity and human safety;

Stainless steel properties: mechanical property of stainless steel coil, corrosion resistance, cold and hot processing, welding and other properties are the same as the original stainless steel coil, sheet, pipe and bars.

Antibacterial properties of antibacteria stainless steel sheet coils:

stainless steel material grade	Escherichia coli	Staphylococcus aureus
Conventional stainless steel	0	0
Antibacterial stainless steel	> 99.9	> 99.9
