ALGAE/BACTERIA GROWTH

WO2008048868

PROPEX INC

A woven fabric pool cover has an antimicrobial agent that reduces/prevents the growth of microbes on the pool cover and in the water of a swimming pool covered by the cover. The fabric cover may be woven from polyolefin extruded monofilaments, and/or fibrillated tape yarns where the yarns have an antimicrobial agent added during the yarn extrusion process or added to fabric formed by the yarns.
