NanoTouch Materials, a provider of self-cleaning surface products, has developed a clear self-cleaning adhesive film that can be easily applied to touch screens, according to a press release.
This film, the first clear material in the company's line, includes mineral nanocrystals, which are powered by light and generate an oxidation reaction stronger than bleach. The self-cleaning action works continuously to completely break down any organic contaminants deposited on the screen.
An additional benefit: The clear self-cleaning film uses a residue-free adhesive that holds up to use in public spaces better than traditional static cling films, the company said.
