ANTIMICROBIAL GLASS AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

It is intended to provide an antimicrobial glass capable of exhibiting an excellent aggregation inhibitory effect while eluting a sufficient amount of Ag ion, and a production process whereby such an antimicrobial glass can be efficiently obtained. In an antimicrobial glass capable of eluting Ag ion and a process for producing the same, an inorganic compound having an average grain size of 0.1 mum or above (for example, tricalcium phosphate, sodium stearate, calcium stearate, zeolite, natural apatite, calcium carbonate, zinc white or shell powder) is added and blended as an aggregation inhibitor.
