Iran-Made Fitted Carpet Kills Bacteria
‘Zarif Mosavar’ company has made the antibacterial fitted carpet whose fibers are modified by oxide nanoparticles with high capability to disinfect the bacteria, inhibit their growth, and suppress the unpleasant odors.
The product is rinse-resistant to conventional disinfectants and maintains its color stability.
Utilization of oxide nanoparticles in the structure of fitted carpet’s fibers has resulted in emergence of strong antibacterial properties, preventing the growth of bacteria and fungi and suppressing the unpleasant odors.
The antibacterial wall-to-wall carpets can be used in kitchen, child room, office, kindergarten and public places like mosques and schools.
In a relevant development earlier this month, Iranian scientists at a nanotechnology company had also succeeded in making a special antibacterial cover for aircraft seats.
‘Tiz Tak’ company made the antibacterial flame-retardant nanoparticle-containing fabric for making the aircraft seat cover to prevent the transmission and growth of pathogenic bacteria, fungi, and microorganisms.
The inclusion of nanoparticles in the fabric has led to emergence of durable antibacterial property.
