Micro-fiber wiping cloth found to remove 99% of nano-size contaminants
Toray, Industries Inc. that its TORAYSEE Micro-Fiber Wiping Cloths remove and prevent reapplication of nano-size materials, such as non-envelop virus smaller than COVID-19, oil film, organic matter and other contaminants, states a Toray, Industries Inc. press release.
TORAYSEE has ultra-fine 2-micron diameter fibers as compared to conventional cleaning cloths with approximately 15-micron diameter fibers. TORAYSEE forms “micro pockets” that are 10 times denser than conventional cleaning cloths and will remove and hold contaminants and prevent reapplication of them onto the cleaned surface.
TORAYSEE is designed for cleaning medical equipment, instruments, workstations and work environments, airplanes, buses, manufacturing and processing facilities. The clothes can be used either wet or dry, according to requirements, and can be used with a wide range of disinfectants, like sodium hypochlorite, to further enhance disinfecting. Used dry, they are good for sensitive applications, such as electronic devices and materials/surfaces affected by liquids and harsh chemicals.
Washable and reusable, TORAYSEE has extreme washing durability and chemical resistance to sustain reuse from 60 to over 400 times, depending on use. Tests show after a five-week soaking in sodium hypochrolite, TORAYSEE retained its wiping performance.
Each TORAYSEE measures 10 x 10 inches and is packaged 100 to a carton containing instructions and precautions to follow prior to use.
