Abstract:One method to reduce the spread of pathogens is to use clean surfaces. These have long-acting components, and their use would reduce the massive consumption of disinfectants and cleaning products. In order to ensure the safety of these surfaces in water-based systems and prevent mishandling and potential health and environmental risks, this study analyzed the stability of clean surfaces made of polyethylene with three silver compounds with different water solubility. The surfaces were subjected to erosion at 4… Show more
