What They Say
“Antibacterial tableware and kitchen tools Tableware
and kitchen tools play an important role in people¡¯s
daily life. It is also one of the most usual ways to
spread disease especially in public places like
restaurant, cafes, and inns, etc. People always use
traditional ways such as sterilizer to kill bacteria and
germs but the result is not satisfied, because many
bacteria and viruses survive or relive very quickly.
Our Antibacterial tableware which with nano silver
coating could kill the attached bacteria and microbial
in ten minutes and the effect can last for a long time
even permanently and keep the surface always clean.
Thus, our antibacterial tableware and kitchen tools
can prevent people from the following diseases:
duodenitis caused by spirillums, virosis hepatitis,
dysentery caused by salmonella and food poisoning
caused by golden staphylococcus.”
Clean Shoe Locker (Model KLENZ )
Company: Maha Corp™
What They Say
“Nano-technology is a rapidly growing science of producing and utilizing nano-sized particle that
measure in nanometers (1 nm is 1 billionth of a meter). Silver has been used for medical
purposes for over 100 years and it has one of the most effective antibacterial and anti fungous
properties. Nano-silver particles typically measure 25nm and they have extremely relatively large
surface area, increasing their contact with bacteria or fungi. When nano-silvers contact with
bacteria and fungi, they adversely affect cellular metabolism and inhibit cell growth and they
finally kill them to almost 100 %.”

Alusion™ Alumina Powders
Company: Advanced Nanotechnology Limited
•
What They Say
•
“Mechanochemical Processing technology (MCP) is a new
manufacturing technique for nanopowders. In making
Alusion™ alumina powder, dry-milling alumina triggers a
chemical reaction, which makes a fine nanopowder form
within a salt matrix. Next the powder is heat-treated,
after which the salt is simply washed away. MCP is unique
among technologies in producing uniformly distributed
nanoparticles of approximately the same size; the
average size of the alumina particles can be manipulated
during the milling and heat-treatment steps of the
process. In the final step, a water-repellent coating is
added to the particles, which makes it possible to add the
powder to a broad range of organic binders.
•
The uniform molecular structure of Alusion™ provides superior slip,
adhesion and transparency. Specifically designed for use in cosmetics, it
diffuses any light that the skin reflects, making wrinkles and fine lines
difficult to see. Alusion™ is highly transparent, so the powder doesn’t
change the skin’s natural hue. Although some similar technologies are
unsuitable for use in cosmetics, Alusion™ is safe to use and approved by
the FDA.
It’s currently used in cosmetics such as face powders, foundations, eye
shadow and lipstick, as well as bath and body products. But consider using
Alusion™ in industrial applications; its properties would come in equally
handy in high-temperature lubricants, pigment substrates, metal casting
die release agents and slip additives for plastics.”
