PROCESS FOR PRODUCING ANTI-MICROBIAL EFFECT WITH COMPLEX SILVER IONS

Production of an anti-microbial effect in an alcohol or water based electrolyte is achieved by preparing silver materials that form complex ions other than Ag+, Ag2+, or Ag3+, and which produce an anti-microbial effect that is greater than that produced by an equivalent amount of silver as Ag+. Exem...

Zusammenfassung:Production of an anti-microbial effect in an alcohol or water based electrolyte is achieved by preparing silver materials that form complex ions other than Ag+, Ag2+, or Ag3+, and which produce an anti-microbial effect that is greater than that produced by an equivalent amount of silver as Ag+. Exemplary complex silver ions produced include Ag(CN)2, AgCN(aq)(ion pair), Ag(NH3)2+, AgCl2-, and Ag(S2O3)2 3-. The silver materials mu st be prepared as powders or as solutions or suspensions containing the complex silver ions.
