Zhao Jindan, an engineer of the Microbiology Laboratory of China Household Electrical Appliances Research Institute, introduced the sterilization technology and test evaluation method of washing machine at the forum. At present, the sterilization technology of the main application of washing machine in the market has high temperature sterilization, ozone sterilization, silver ion sterilization, Electrolytic water sterilization, nano water ion sterilization, UV sterilization, etc. Among them, silver ion sterilization includes ordinary silver ion sterilization, photodynamic silver sterilization, nano anion sterilization. The principle of ordinary silver ion sterilization is to use Ag+ Reducing, combined with sulfhydryl (-SH) on bacterial proteases, inactivates proteases, causing them to die. Its advantages are high efficiency, can effectively kill a variety of pathogenic bacteria, and has a long-lasting; photo-activated silver sterilization is the use of light The photocatalytic reaction of Ag+ and water produces hydroxyl radicals and reactive oxygen species, thereby achieving the sterilization effect. This method increases the hydroxyl radicals and reactive oxygen species based on the common Ag+ effect, and synergistically removes bacteria more thoroughly; nanometer silver ion diameter It is 10~100 nm, and the contact area with the outside is larger, which is more conducive to its entry into the cell, combined with the sulfhydryl group on the protease in the bacteria. Its advantage is broad-spectrum antibacterial sterilization, seepage Strong, low dosage. Although the three silver ion sterilization methods have good effects, the release concentration of silver ions needs to be closely controlled to avoid the hidden danger of heavy metal pollution, and the silver ion generator may no longer be used after a certain period of use. There is a sterilization effect, which is what consumers should know when purchasing.

Yao Yanchun, engineer of microbiology laboratory, China Household Electrical Appliances Research Institute

Yao Yanchun, an engineer at the Microbiology Laboratory of the China Household Electrical Appliances Research Institute, introduced the technical requirements and test methods for the silver ion sterilization function of the washing machine. Yao Yanchun introduced that the silver ion sterilization used in the washing machine utilizes the reducibility of silver, and the built-in silver in the host. Ionizer', the washing machine uses the principle of electrolysis in the influent process to decompose silver ions from the silver sheet with a purity of 99.9%, and enters the washing tub with the water flow, destroying the cell wall of the bacteria in the laundry stain, causing the bacteria to die. In order to achieve the desired sterilization effect, the silver ion concentration in the washing process plays a vital role. The technical requirements and test methods for the silver ion sterilization function of the washing machine used in this test are in GB 21551.5-2010 On the basis of the limits of special requirements for washing machines for antibacterial, antibacterial and purifying functions of similar uses, the sterilization rate of electric washing machines with sterilization function should be not less than 98.0%. The attenuation sterilization rate is not less than 95%: wave The washing machine runs 1150 times without trouble/the drum runs without trouble for 1150h. The residual amount of silver ions in the drainage in the test cannot be higher than 0.1mg/L. After the washing process, the residual amount of silver ions on the test piece is not higher than 0.2 mg/m2. The test of the Little Swan brand pulsator and drum washing machine reached the limit requirement in the 'silver ion sterilization method'. , has excellent sterilization effect, and will not cause harm to the human body, becoming the first washing machine tested by this test method.
