Anti-microbial pathway

• Protein denaturation

• Blocks respiratory chain

• Metabolite efflux

• Blocks DNA replication

• Massive proton leakage

Anti-Odor

• Bonding of denatured protein of dead bacteria

• Chemical bonding of other odor causing agents including many chemicals

Anti-Static

• As in anti-microbial property; a little of Ag Flex goes a long way

• Either as grounded delivery system or as corona discharge pathway Ag Flex moves charge by conducting it through the entire pathway to eventually into the ground or distributing the charge so that it will be spread evenly and hence make the article safe

Thermal Properties

• Due to conductive nature of silver; energy in form of heat is evenly distributed across the article incorporated with Ag Flex.

• This enables movement of heat resulting in keeping the subject cooler when it is warm or warmer when it is cold

• Measurement is done for thermal conductivity as CLO value or thermal conductivity. It is also measured in terms of “Comfort Factor”

EMI Shielding

Electromagnetic interference, EMI, is radiated or conducted energy that adversely affects circuit performance, and thus disrupts a device’s EMC. Many types of electronic circuits radiate or are susceptible to EMI and must be shielded to ensure proper performance.

• Silver being most conductive is easily the most effective metal to shield and protect various instrumentation

• Malleable and Ductile property of silver helps in integrating of shielding products made of silver easy to use
