Surface disinfectant formulation
View Patent ↗An aqueous disinfectant solution having a stable ionic form of metals like silver, copper, and zinc in combination having significant ability to kill or disabling microorganisms and acts as antifungal as well with an extended useful shelf-life characterized by its non-corrosive nature and possesses better residual efficacy.
1 . A disinfectant composition comprising:
zinc ions 20,000 to 200,000 ppm of the composition;
a biopolymer 1-10% by weight of the composition;
silver ions less 10 to 100 ppm of the composition; and
copper ions less 10 to 100 ppm of the composition, wherein the silver and copper ions are formed from electrolysis of silver and copper metals such that the composition lacks a corresponding ion from a dissolved copper or silver compound.
2 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the pH of the composition is greater than 7 to approximately 8.
3 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the biopolymer is hydrophilic.
4 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the biopolymer is at least one of Polyethylene glycol (PEG), Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), and Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).
5 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the biopolymer is hydrophilic Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP).
6 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is in the form of a liquid.
7 . The composition of claim 1 , wherein the composition is a powder, a tablet, a capsule, an aerosol, an infusion, a spray, a mist, or a drop.
