Odor Eliminating Solution

摘要

An odor eliminating solution comprises the active deodorizing and antimicrobial agents of silver nanoparticles dispersed in colloidal suspension in a solution containing excess sodium tetraborate decahydrate, commonly referred to as borax. The silver nanoparticles provide deodorizing and antimicrobial properties through the colloidal dispersion which provides a high surface area to volume ratio for the suspension. The sodium tetraborate decahydrate provides deodorizing and antimicrobial properties through its co-complexing ability with various substances. The combination of both provides the present invention with long term stability and deodorizing and antimicrobial activity. Furthermore, the present invention include the method for formulating the odor eliminating solution through the combination of a silver nanoparticle source solution and an aqueous sodium tetraborate solution which results in a chemical reaction that synthesizes the silver nanoparticles from the silver cations. The resulting odor eliminating solution can be utilized independently or combined with existing odor management products.
