Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of bacteriostatic products, in particular to a bacteriostatic agent and its application. BACKGROUND

[0002] During persistent cloudy weather or the rainy season, it's difficult to air-dry clothes, especially thick clothing, within a short period of time after washing, often resulting in a smelly, irritating garment. A dryer is an ideal solution to this problem. However, drying appliances such as dryers are not very common in many families. To date, suitable solutions for bacteriostasis, odor control, and deodorization of washed clothes are still lacking.

[0003] Clothes actually stink because odors spread after fungi multiply and ferment in the clothing. These odors are not only annoying but also have negative health effects. Furthermore, other everyday items such as bedding, napkins, rags, and mops are often prone to breeding microorganisms and therefore require a higher level of antibacterial agents. DEPICTION

[0004] The present invention relates to a bacteriostatic agent containing the following components in parts by weight: 15-30 parts glycerin, 2-10 parts chitosan, 2-10 parts methylcellulose, 1-5 parts sodium bicarbonate, 1-5 parts stannous chloride, 0.5-2 parts nanoiron, 0.1-2 parts sodium sorbate and 40-90 parts water.

[0005] In the present invention, methylcellulose can perform various functions, such as anti-precipitation to maintain the stability of the bacteriostatic agent, cooperate with chitosan to form a network structure, and better load stannous chloride, nano-iron, and sodium sorbate, thereby enhancing the bacteriostatic effect. Sodium bicarbonate can adjust the pH and enhance the bacteriostatic effect. Glycerin can perform a dissolving function and is combined with water to form a double solvent system, which can increase the solubility and stability of the entire solution system. Furthermore, all of the aforementioned raw materials are harmless to humans and have no toxicity.

[0006] Preferably, the particle size of the nanoiron in the aforementioned bacteriostatic agent is 20 nm to 300 nm, for example 50 nm, 100 nm, 150 nm, 200 nm or 250 nm.

[0007] Preferably, the aforementioned bacteriostatic agent also contains essence.

[0008] Preferably, the essence in the above bacteriostatic agent is a natural essence and / or a mixed essence.

[0034] The detergent in the comparative example was the same as in the examples, and commercially available Comfort detergent was used for washing. Experimental example

[0035] To investigate the bacteriostatic effect of the samples, the applicant tested the difference between the bacteriostatic effects of the samples in Example 4 and the comparative example. Dirty laundry that received the same treatment was washed separately with the sample in Example 4 and the detergent in the comparative example, then packed in plastic bags and stored at room temperature for 7 days prior to the bacteriostatic performance tests. The results are shown in the table below. sample Escherichia coli colony count Staphylococcus aureus Candida albicans Smell of clothing Example 4 no a couple no Essentially no smells Comparison example a couple many a couple strong smell Detergent group many many a couple strong smell
