Frequently Asked Questions

How does the technology work in the plastic components of water purifiers?

TNS Nano’s antimicrobial technology is directly incorporated into the polymer matrix of the melt-blown filter, the cold water reservoir, hoses, housing, nozzle, extension tube, on/off button, and activated carbon. This continuous integration helps control the proliferation of bacteria and fungi on the treated surface, contributing to the hygiene and preservation of the system throughout its use. The technology is incorporated into the material and designed to perform consistently during use.

Does the use of antimicrobial solutions help reduce biofilm formation in hoses and tanks?

Yes. Incorporating this technology into the plastic helps reduce the buildup of microorganisms that contribute to biofilm formation. By acting on the surface of the treated components, the solution helps keep hoses, tanks, and other components better protected, helping to prevent unwanted odors, sensory changes, and secondary contamination.

Which microorganisms can be controlled by antimicrobial technology in water purifiers?

The technology acts on the treated surface to help control bacteria, fungi, and other microorganisms associated with moisture and biofilm formation. Depending on the application and the tests conducted, this may include microorganisms of interest such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa and E. coli, as well as other agents related to the deterioration and surface contamination of plastic components.

Do additives help maintain the performance of the purifier's internal components?

Yes. By helping to control microbial growth and biofilm formation on adjacent structures and casings, the technology helps preserve the system’s internal components. This helps better maintain the integrity and performance of the system throughout its service life.

Does the use of antimicrobial solutions require changes to the plastic injection molding process for water purifiers?

No. Integration occurs by adding the antimicrobial masterbatch directly to polymers, such as polypropylene and polycarbonate, during conventional injection molding or extrusion processes. The manufacturer retains its original machinery and production steps, incorporating the technology in a way that is compatible with industrial routines.

How is the effectiveness of antimicrobial solutions proven for plastic components in air purifiers?

Effectiveness can be demonstrated through laboratory tests based on standards such as NBR 16098. These analyses evaluate antimicrobial activity on treated plastic surfaces and help technically substantiate the solution’s performance in the application.

Are the antimicrobial solutions used in water purifiers safe for use with drinking water?

Yes. TNS Nano’s antimicrobial solutions are developed with consideration for the technical requirements of the application and the specific needs related to their use in air purifier components. Determining the appropriate solution depends on the design, polymer, structure, and regulatory requirements of the final product.

Does the integration of this technology alter the visual or mechanical properties of the appliance?

No. TNS Nano’s antimicrobial technology is designed to preserve key characteristics such as transparency, impact resistance, and surface finish in plastic parts, always in accordance with the technical validation of the application. For visual components, the goal is to maintain the product’s aesthetics and functionality.

How does technology help a brand stand out in the home goods market?

The technology adds a functional advantage to the product, allowing the brand to go beyond visual and design attributes. In water purifiers, this reinforces perceptions of hygiene, care, and innovation, contributing to a more premium market positioning. In addition, TNS Nano helps develop the campaign by providing strategic guidance, materials, and technical arguments to communicate the value of the technology in the product.

What is the main benefit of antimicrobial technology for the end consumer?

The main benefit lies in providing greater hygiene, a greater sense of safety, and greater comfort in everyday use. By acting on the surface of plastic components, the technology helps keep the equipment better protected over time, thereby boosting consumer confidence in the product.
