FN® Nano Coatings For Academic Institutions

FN® NANO Coatings Creates A Healthier Air Environment Reducing Illnesses In Schools & Nurseries

FN ® Coatings improve the indoor environment and reduce morbidity in pre-school facilities and schools. Thus FN® Coatings fulfills the 3 most basic functions:

Protection Against Dangerous Substances Indoors

Protect children and preschool staff from hazardous substances such as cleaning chemicals, fumes from particleboard and plastic materials, and toxins produced by bacteria housed in air conditioning systems.

Protect children and preschool staff from hazardous substances such as cleaning chemicals, fumes from particleboard and plastic materials, and toxins produced by bacteria housed in air conditioning systems. Activated FN® Coating areas clean the air of molecules and microscopic particles of hazardous substances which other technology cannot cope with. Ultraviolet light (UV), which is a natural component of daylight, activates TiO 2 (titanium dioxide) nanoparticles. Once a molecule, a microscopic dust particle, a virus, a bacterium, a spore, reaches the activated TiO 2 nanoparticles, it catalyzes (induces and accelerates) the reaction of an oxidizable mass with air oxygen. For example, organic substances decompose primarily becoming water molecules and carbon dioxide. With the impact of another dose of UV radiation, the nanoparticles are immediately reactivated and the process can be repeated, practically indefinitely. In this process photocatalysis also removes very dangerous substances; poisons, allergens and carcinogens.

Protection From Air Pollution & Vehicle Emissions

Protect children and staff from emissions that penetrate the interiors of buildings from the outside and have a negative impact on their health.

The effect of the action is the same as described in the previous paragraph. An activated FN® Coating surface effectively degrades the dangerous substances contained in air pollution both in the form of toxic molecules, as well as in relation to fine dust particles (PM1, PM2.5, PM10). It effectively disposes of of benz(a)pyrene, polyaromatic hydrocarbons and other substances that endanger human health.

Removing Unpleasant Odors

When cooking or using disinfectants and detergents, an activated FN® Coating surface degrades the unpleasant odor molecules that get into the air, effectively removing the odor.

Use of FN® Coating Shows Significant Reduction In The Morbidity Of Children In Schools.

The activated FN® Coating layer has, in combination with its extreme photocatalytic efficacy, a number of practical effects that can be utilized in pre-school facilities. Experience and reports from a number of kindergartens shows that the use of FN® Coatings in areas where children are involved leads to a reduction in their morbidity.

Furthermore, multi-year observations of the use of FN® Coatings, in a number of kindergartens in the Czech Republic, have shown a positive impact on reducing the number of respiratory diseases in children in classes where FN® Coating technology is used. Children in these classes show, in terms of attendance, an average of 30% less absence due to illness during the “flu” season than in classes where FN® coatings are used.
