How does graphene fabric lead traditional mattress materials in antibacterial function?

Graphene Mattress Fabrics leads traditional mattress materials in antibacterial function, mainly due to its unique physical and chemical properties and innovative material technology, which are as follows:

1. Unique structure and characteristics of graphene
High-efficiency antibacterial ability:
The graphene surface has a strong "physical destruction effect", which can pierce the bacterial cell membrane through sharp nano-edges, causing bacterial death.

Unlike chemical fungicides, this physical action does not produce bacterial resistance.

Ion interference effect:
The carbon nanostructure released by graphene interacts with the ion channels on the surface of bacteria, disrupting the metabolism of bacteria and further enhancing the antibacterial effect.

2. No need to add chemicals
Natural safety:
Graphene materials do not require additional antibacterial chemicals (such as silver ions or chemical coatings), avoiding the potential risks of chemical residues to human health.
Persistence:
The effect of traditional antibacterial materials may weaken over time, but graphene fabrics can maintain long-term and stable antibacterial properties through their inherent physical and molecular properties.

3. Wide range of antibacterial effects
Effective on a variety of bacterial species:
Experiments have shown that graphene has an inhibition rate of over 99% on common pathogens such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus, which is superior to many traditional materials in terms of antibacterial coverage.
Anti-mite and mildew-proof:
Graphene's antibacterial properties can also effectively resist the growth of mold and dust mites, while traditional materials are relatively inadequate in this regard.

4. Material air permeability and humidity regulation
Reducing bacterial growth conditions:
Graphene fabrics have good air permeability and humidity regulation capabilities, which can quickly discharge moisture generated by the human body and inhibit the humid environment required for bacterial growth.
Temperature control function:
Its thermal conductivity can keep the mattress fabric dry, further reducing the risk of bacterial growth.
