Activeion
Cleaning Evaluation
General Purpose
Cleaning
The Activeion technology was tested against a commercial-grade,
general-purpose cleaner. The test was conducted with Hucker’s
Soil (a mixture containing creamy peanut butter, salted butter,
stone ground wheat flour, egg yolk, evaporated milk, distilled
water, printer’s ink with boiled linseed oil and saline
solution). The mixture was applied to ceramic, stainless steel
and plastic surfaces.
TURI Conclusion: The Activeion technology removed more
than 90 percent of the Hucker’s Soil on two of the three
surfaces in the first pass and was found to be more effective
than the conventional cleaning products. The composite soil used
in this test represents a worst-case cleaning scenario.
Glass , Chrome and Mirrors
The Activeion technology was tested against a leading glass cleaner.
The test was conducted with SSL Soil 2 (a soap scum mixture containing
shaving cream, deodorant, hair gel, toothpaste and water). The
mixture was applied to glass, chrome and mirror surfaces.
TURI Conclusion: The Activeion technology is the most
effective soap scum remover and had the lowest level of filming.

Activeion ionator
Each spray unit was filled with 250 mL of sponsor-supplied tap
water
Influenza A (H1N1) virus,
ATCC VR-1469, Strain A/PR/8/34
Six Seconds (spray time)
Room Temperature (24.0°C)
Two lots of Activeion, lot 1.1a 600 SZ#1 and lot 1.1a 600 SZ#2,
met the test criteria specified in the study protocol. The results
indicate complete inactivation of the Influenza A (H1N1) virus
under these test conditions as required by the U.S. EPA for claims
of virucidal activity.

Stainless Steel
Stainless steel coupons were measured with a gloss meter before
and after cleaning to determine how well the supplied product
improved the gloss of the surface. In addition, visual observations
were made as to the level of cleanliness achieved. The stainless
steel coupons were contaminated with several layers of fingerprints
and wiped with a microfiber cloth.
TURI Conclusion: The Activeion product
was effective at removing finger oils from the stainless steel
surface and performed better than the stainless steel cleaner.
The Activeion technology improved the shine/gloss by 20 percent.
Testing Performed
At:
Toxics Use Reducti on Instit ute (TURI)
Surface Solutions Laboratory
University of Massachusetts Lowell
TURI developed the test procedure and test method. Most testing
performed to a modified ASTM G122 Test Method, a modified version
of the Green Seal GS-37 standard, the CSPA DCC-17 — Greasy
Soil Test Method, or the CRI Carpet Spot Cleaning TM-110 standard.
