DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
- This invention relates to the a method of antimicrobial treatment for automative air-conditioning system designed to entirely inhibit the generation and proliferation of several species of fungi by manufacturing, through the use of antimicrobial agents, each of components consisting of the existing air-conditioning system.
- sub-components in plastic material such as housing, pad, etc. are molded by mixing the antimicrobial compounds such as isothiazolines or oxybisphenoxarsines.
- a core of air-conditioning evaporator in aluminium material is antimicrobially treated by coating hydrophilic coloring agent containing parachlorometa xylenol, antimicrobial composition.
- isothiazolines having the following chemical formula(I) of 2-n-octyl-4-isothiazoline-3-one is used as an antimicrobial agent
- oxybisphenoxarsine having the following chemical formula(II) of 10,10'- oxybisphenoxarsine is used as an antimicrobial agent:
- the said air-conditioning system composes of four components such as air-conditioning evaporator, heater, blower and duct ; among them, the fabrication of air-conditioning evaporator contains the housing and core in its inside, well-closed pad designed to ensure the tightness in the inside of housing, and 7 oscillation-absorbing lining pad.
- the fabrication of housing in the said air-conditioning evaporator is made from the following process : polypropylene resin added with talc of 20wt. % is mixed with appropriate antimicrobial agents such as isothiazolines or oxybisphenoxarsines to manufacture a master batch and then, the batch is under the process of injection molding to manufacture the air-conditioning evaporator housing, having durability and antimicrobial activity.
- the compound having 2-n-octyl-4-isothiazoline-3-one as isothiazolines may be used as an antimicrobial agent
- the compound having 10,10'- oxybisphenoxarsine as oxybisphenoxarsines may be used as an antimicrobial agent.
- the antimicrobial effect may not be achieved and in case of its excessive use, the injected molding become poor and thus, a variety of physical properties proves to be also poor.

Then, by mixing the said isothiazoline or oxybisphenoxarsine in 0.5 ⁇ 1.5wt. %, a master batch is manufactured and through the common method, the injected molding is performed to obtain a final object.
- the reason on limited use of antimicrobial agent in case of the housing of the said air-conditioning evaporator is applicable to the components of blower.
- the lining pad of blower comprises a foaming urethane item, manufactured from a foaming process after the antimicrobial treatment as in the same manner as do in the lining pad of the said air-conditioning evaporator.
- the duct, air tunnel of the antimicrobially treated automative air- conditioning system comprises a blow-molding product of polyethylene material; the piled dusts make the fungi to proliferate in duct due to difference in temperature, the antimicrobial treatment must be taken; as a basic material, polypropylene is added with the said isothiazoline or oxybisphenoxarsine in 0.5 - 1.5 t. %, a master batch is i o manufactured and through the common method, the blow molding is performed to obtain the antimicrobially treated duct.
- the air-conditioning system consisting of each of antimicrobially treated component under a common fabrication method may inhibit the proliferation of fungi.
- the manufactured air-conditioning evaporator, heater, blower and duct which are main components of the existing automative air- conditioning system, is under antimicrobial treatment by mixing a certain amount of antimicrobial agents to the existing molding materials.
- the system can demonstrate their antimicrobial activities without change in physical properties C compared with the existing components.
