The Science
Nature
uses a process called Titanium Dioxide Photocatalysis where sunlight
causes Titanium Dioxide to produce excited electrons that then almost
immediately combine with water molecules into super oxygen molecules
that clean the air of deadly pathogens and toxic pollutants. This
natural process is what keeps the earth’s atmosphere from being
overpowered by disease and pollution. NASA is currently using a version
of this technology to purify and clean the air on the International
Space Station.
PURE-LIGHT
TECHNOLOGIES®, has taken the Nature/ NASA technology, improved it, made
it last longer and has adapted it to specially prepared light bulbs
that can be used indoors or outdoors. We call it PURE-LIGHT SUPER
OXYGEN TECHNOLOGY®. Specifically, PURE-LIGHT TECHNOLOGIES®, using a
new patent pending process that PLT developed, coats a light bulb with
an ultra- thin, transparent coating of a new proprietary enhanced
Titanium Dioxide formula (ZZ-TiO2 ) that reacts with light to produce
super oxygen molecules that work against viruses, bacteria, mold and
breaks down toxic VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds). Titanium Dioxide
(TiO2) is one of the more common elements in the world and is rated as
inert and non-toxic (MSDS rating). Because it is non-toxic, TiO2 is used
in a large variety of items including vitamins, cosmetics, food
coloring, paint, and sunscreens.
As
air comes near the PURE-LIGHT coated light bulbs (approximately 8ft—12
ft) it gets cleansed of these bacteria, viruses, mold, and pollutants.
The air also gets deodorized as well since almost all odors are an
organic compound. There is also a secondary PURE-LIGHT effect on the
surfaces of items near the light bulb, such as kitchen/bathroom
counters, dishes, stoves, cutting boards, door knobs, etc.
The
two special super oxygen molecules Pure-Light bulbs produce are called
SUPEROXIDE (O2- ) and HYDROXYL ION (OH-). These two super oxygen
molecules provide a triple "action"... two actions against viruses and
bacteria, and another "action" against VOCs. SUPEROXIDE (O2-), or SUPER
OXYGEN, is actually produced in the human body in large quantities by
white blood cells and is used by the immune system to kill invading
microorganisms. Superoxide (O2-) inside the body, or in the air,
combines with a microorganism giving it essentially a boost of oxygen.
Good cells thrive with the extra oxygen while viruses and bacteria are
killed by the extra oxygen. Superoxides are also used in firefighters'
oxygen tanks and divers re-breather systems in order to provide a
readily available source of oxygen.
The
HYDROXYL ION (OH-) is often referred to as the "detergent" of the
atmosphere because it reacts with many pollutants called VOCs (Volatile
Organic Compounds), often acting as the first step to their removal. It
is much more effective at this action than ozone. Hydroxyl radicals also
attack the porous cell walls of bacteria and viruses which destroys
them through the process known as cell lysing. Human, animal and plant
cells are designed to be in the sunlight and have cell walls that are
less porous and are not harmed by atmospheric hydroxyl radicals.
These features work best with multiple light bulbs that are left on for several hours:
The
technology behind the Pure-Light Super Oxygen Light™ bulbs has been
proven to breakdown 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, fungi, mold including
deadly MRSA, Cold & Flu viruses, E-COLI, SARS, STAPH, CRE,
Salmonella, Anthrax, Plague, COVID-19... even those viruses/bacteria
that have become resistant to antibiotics.
New Patent Pending Technology allows it to work indoors for up to 10 years with natural indoor lighting!
Additionally,
the process breaks down toxic indoor air pollutants like formaldehyde,
carbon monoxide, methane, benzine and other VOCs into harmless
components. (The main components of Smog)
Eradicates the need for harmful chemical sanitizers
Eliminates the need for aerosols that deplete the ozone layer
These features work with only a single bulb after just 45 minutes of being turned on:
ANTI-ALLERGEN...The process also dissolves Pollen and other allergens. You can literally help make your home hypo-allergenic.
DESTROYS ODORS without masking them with fragrances
(Same
type of light used to overcome Seasonally Affected Depression
(SAD))DAYLIGHT BRIGHT FULL SPECTRUM also known as the "HAPPY LIGHT" it
helps fight winter blues.
