[0076] Table 1 Antimicrobial rate (WS_T650-2019)

[0077]

[0078] From the test results of Examples 1-5 above, it can be seen that the slow-release cleaner of the present application has a high bacteriostatic rate at the beginning, and can still maintain a high bacteriostatic effect after 7 days. This proves that the cleaner of the present application has excellent antibacterial performance and slow-release performance. At the same time, by comparing the test results of different examples and comparative examples, the composition and ratio of raw materials can be further optimized to obtain the best antibacterial and slow-release effect.

[0079] From Examples 6-12 above, it can be seen that the slow-release cleaner of the present application has excellent bacteriostatic effect and maintains stable bacteriostatic rate for a long time. In the comparative examples, by changing the particle size of nano zinc oxide, the mass ratio of polyvinyl alcohol PVA / carboxymethyl cellulose sodium CMC-Na, and the content of p-chloro-m-xylenol PCMX, etc., all will affect the bacteriostatic effect of the cleaner. Specifically, when the average particle size of nano zinc oxide is 150 nm, the bacteriostatic effect of the cleaner is best; the mass ratio of polyvinyl alcohol PVA / carboxymethyl cellulose sodium CMC-Na has an important influence on the stability of the cleaner; and the content of p-chloro-m-xylenol PCMX directly affects the bacteriostatic capacity of the cleaner. Therefore, by reasonably adjusting the composition and content of each raw material, a slow-release cleaner with excellent bacteriostatic effect and stability can be prepared.

[0080] Application verification

[0081] Actual measurement of household toilet: one solid cleaner (18 grams) is put into the water tank of the toilet of a family of three, and the bactericidal effect is detected regularly (at least 30 minutes after the last toilet flushing time).

[0082]

[0083] From the data in Table 1, the cleaning agent of Examples 1-12 has a high inhibition rate for both E. coli and S. aureus at 0 hours and 7 days after, showing good antibacterial performance. In Comparative Examples 1-6, due to the change of formula or ingredient, the antibacterial performance is relatively decreased. Among them, the average particle size of nano zinc oxide in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 deviates from the optimal range, resulting in a significant decrease in antibacterial performance; the mass ratio of polyvinyl alcohol PVA / carboxymethyl cellulose sodium CMC-Na in Comparative Example 3 and Comparative Example 4 is not suitable, which also affects the antibacterial effect of the cleaning agent; the nano zinc oxide is replaced by nano silver oxide in Comparative Example 5, and the average particle size of nano zinc oxide is changed in Comparative Example 6, which all lead to the change of antibacterial performance. Therefore, the slow-release cleaning agent for intelligent machines has excellent antibacterial performance and stability, and is suitable for cleaning and maintenance of intelligent machines and other equipment.

[0084] The synergistic bactericidal network realizes persistent and broad-spectrum sterilization through a triple action mechanism: 1) the organic component (such as PCMX) is adsorbed on the microbial cell membrane through the hydrophobic group, penetrates the phospholipid bilayer to cause intracellular substance leakage; 2) the inorganic nano material (such as ZnO) generates hydroxyl radicals (·OH), superoxide anions (O 2- ) and other active oxygen species under the activation of water molecules, which destroys the cross-linking structure of bacterial proteins. The FTIR and SEM microcharacterization verification shows that the organic / inorganic synergistic system can shorten the morphological destruction time of the bacteria to 90 seconds within 3-5 minutes of the conventional preparation, and can continuously release the effective components for more than 14 days, meeting the long-term application requirements of devices such as flush toilets and robotic sweepers.

[0085] It will be obvious to a person skilled in the art that, without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the application, the present application can be implemented in other specific forms. The present embodiments are therefore to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the application being indicated by the appended claims rather than by the description given above, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.

[0086] In addition, it should be understood that, although the present specification is described in terms of embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution, and the description of the specification is only for the sake of clarity, and those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can be properly combined to form other embodiments that those skilled in the art can understand.
