How TiO2 UV Photo catalytic Oxidation Works
Photocatalytic oxidation is achieved when you combine UV light rays with a TiO2 coated filter. TiO2 refers to Titanium Dioxide. This process creates hydroxyl radicals and super-oxide ions, which are highly reactive electrons.
These highly reactive electrons aggressively combine with other elements in the air, such as bacteria and VOCs. VOC is an acronym for Volatile Organic Compounds which include harmful pollutants such as formaldehyde, ammonia and many other common contaminants released by building materials and household cleaners generally found in the home. Effective oxidation of the pollutants breaks down into harmless carbon dioxide and water molecules, drastically improving the air quality.
During summer, the titanium crystals reflect sunlight to enhance cooling considerably.
Ecogreen Plus Corporation research teams were compelled to develop this breakthrough technology as a way to abate the ever-increasing air pollution affecting urban areas, to keep structures more aesthetically pleasing and reducing costs of exterior maintenance, and to contribute to be air quality.
Conclusive results in both research and real world applications confirm that architectural surfaces on which the Photocatalytic Paint Technology has been applied is efficient in destroying atmospheric elements that cause soiling and pollution.
