FEATURES

Strong Oxydation Power
Hydroxyl radicals are among the strongest oxidizing species, even much stronger than chlorine, ozone, and peroxide. They act as very powerful disinfecting agents by oxidizing the cells of microorganisms, causing rupture and leakage of vital composition.

Air Purification
NOx / VOCs / Odors Remediation
On the deodorizing application, the hydroxyl radicals accelerate the breakdown of any Volatile Organic Compounds or VOCs by destroying the molecular bonds. This will help combine the organic gases to form a single molecule that is not harmful to humans thus enhance the air cleaning efficiency.  Some of the examples of odor molecules are: Tobacco odor, formaldehyde, nitrogen dioxide, urine and fecal odor, gasoline, and many other hydro carbon molecules in the atmosphere.

Bacteria / viruses / Mold / Mildew Remediation
Titanium dioxide has strong oxidation affects to single-celled organism that includes all bacteria and fungus. The very strong oxidizing power of Titanium Dioxide can destroy bacteria's cell membrane, causing leakage of the cytoplasm, which inhibits bacteria’s activity and ultimately results in the death and decomposition of bacteria. Generally speaking, disinfections by titanium oxide is three times stronger than chlorination, and 1.5 times stronger than ozonation.
Easily coat toilet tile, glass, sink, porch, curtain, and wallpaper part which prevents from bacteria and mold’s proliferation.

Super Hydrophilic
Self-Cleaning / Anti-Fogging / Anti-Soiling
When the surface of photocatalytic film PHOTOCAL is exposed to light, the contact angle of the phtocatalyst surface with water is reduced gradually. After enough exposure to light, the surface reaches super-hydrophilicity. In other words, it does not repel water at all, so water cannot exist in the shape of a drop, but spreads flatly on the surface of the substrate. And the water took the form of a highly uniform thin film, which behaves optically like a clear sheet of glass.
Most of the exterior walls of buildings become soiled from automotive ad industrial exhaust fumes, which contain oily components. When the original building materials are coated with a PHOTOCAL, the dirt on the walls will wash away with rainfall, keeping the building exterior clean at all times.

Water Epuration
Photocatalyst coupled with UV lights can oxidize organic pollutants into nontoxic materials, such as CO2 and water and can disinfect certain bacteria. This technology is very effective at removing further hazardous organic compounds (TOCs) and at killing a variety of bacteria and some viruses in the secondary wastewater treatment. Pilot projects demonstrated that photocatalytic detoxification systems could effectively kill fecal coli form bacteria in secondary wastewater treatment.
