BactiBlock® Antimicrobial Additives

What is Bactiblock®?
Surface-modified nanoclay additives, modified with silver particles, creating a broad-range antimicrobial solution for a wide variety of polymer, thermoset and coating applications
Additive form:          Powder (Masterbatch for thermoplastic applications)
Color:                     White
Mean particle size:  7 microns

How does it work?
BactiBlock®   additive prevents microbial growth by interaction with negatively charged components in the microbial cell membranes, altering their barrier properties and thereby preventing the entry of nutrients or causing the leakage of intracellular content.

Why Bactiblock?

• The nanoclay carrier of the antimicrobial species ensures ultra high dispersion, durability and cost efficiency compared to other solutions.
• Silver-based, non-toxic
• Compatible with a wide range of polymers, thermoset and coating systems
