Nissan Motor Co. , Ltd. announced on the 21st that it has developed a technology to inactivate the new coronavirus in collaboration with Tohoku University.
It is said that it has confirmed the effect of destroying the protein of the "omicron type" virus and preventing it from infecting humans. It has the potential to be introduced at low cost because it can be used as an additive in automotive exterior paint.
The inactivation technology of electric majors such as Sharp is used for air conditioning in automobiles, and there is also technology that uses metals such as silver. The use of HALS-added paint eliminates the need for special parts and other mechanisms, and because it is a mass-produced material, costs can be reduced.
The inactivation effect has been confirmed using an actual coronavirus, and "we will further verify the inactivation speed, etc." (Mr. Ito). In addition to being highly likely to be effective against the new coronavirus mutations, it is also expected to be effective against bacteria.
