Polyhexidine is a revolutionary, patented technology that imparts the powerful biocidal effectiveness of chlorhexidine into polyolefin resins.

polyhexidine
biocidal polymers
Chlorhexidine has a long history of use in healthcare settings.
Polyethylene and Polypropylene, the most common plastics
in use today.
The 2 compounds are combined into a homogenous blend to create PolyHexidine.
The loss of the crystalline structure of the chlorhexidine within the polymer material is due to its chemical and physical compatibility with
polyolefin resins.
The result is a material with biocidal properties that is water insoluble.
This is NOT a chemical coating on a polymer. It does not leach or wash out.
This compatibility allows for dispersion of the chlorhexidine molecule with the polymer molecules, thereby preventing the chlorhexidine molecules from reforming their natural lattice.
99.99% REDUCTION IN CORONAVIRUS
Polyhexidine has been tested extensively and recent lab results confirm effectiveness in killing Covid-19.
Method: AATCC-100
Material: PolyHexidine Nonwoven Fabric
Tested: Human Coronavirus 229E, ATCC VR-740
MRC-5 Cells, ATCC CCL-171
Polyhexidine is virucidal, bactericidal and fungicidal and has been proven to kill the
following at +6 Log Reduction:
-
Clostridium Difficile (C-Diff)
-
Escherichia Coli (E-Coli)
-
Staphylococcus (Staph & MRSA)
-
Streptococcus Pyogenes (Strep)
-
Enterobacter Aerogenes
-
Pseudomonas Aeruginosa
PolyHexidine creates a mechanical kill through the destruction of the cell wall.
E-Coli cell destruction at multiple contact sites.
Polyhexidine uses standard manufacturing processes for melt blown, spunbond, fiber extrusion, cast and blown film, etc. No modifications to existing production equipment are required.
We have spun Polyhexidine into fiber, converted it into woven and nonwoven material, extruded it into films and tubing.
Class I and Class II Surgical Masks with Covid-19 killing properties.
