Features: This book is suitable for scientists, researchers, production personnel, and management staff engaged in the research, development, production, and application of antibacterial purification materials. Compared to conventional disinfectants and organic antibacterial materials, inorganic antibacterial materials not only possess characteristics such as durability, long-lasting effects, and high-temperature resistance but are also more environmentally friendly and beneficial to human health. In recent years, they have been widely used in materials such as plastics, ceramics, and stainless steel. Application examples range from everyday items like ballpoint pens and water tanks to various fields such as electronic circuit boards, computers, building materials, and textiles. This book introduces the domestic and international development of various inorganic antibacterial materials, market background, classification, properties, manufacturing methods, applications, and case studies. It includes antibacterial materials containing metal ions, anti-mold materials, and oxide antibacterial materials, with a special focus on the newly developed inorganic antibacterial materials in recent years, such as nanoscale antibacterial materials, liquid antibacterial agents, whisker and fiber antibacterial agents, as well as photocatalytic and synergistic antibacterial materials.
