WS NANOBLOC - Evaluating Antimicrobial Coatings: From Air Filtration Efficiency to Antiviral Mechanism and Ecotoxicology
This CEN Workshop intends to develop three CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA) related with the evaluation of functional coatings with antimicrobial properties. The first one explores methods to understand how materials reduce viral infectivity, including drying and ion release tests. The second one establishes a methodological framework for evaluating the antibacterial effectiveness of air filters with antimicrobial agents. It involves contaminating filters with a controlled bacterial bioaerosol, simulating HVAC conditions. Finally, the last one introduces a new way to check how safe PVD coatings on metal surfaces are for the environment, especially after they've been used for a while. These guidelines will make sure that these elements don't accidentally get released into the environment when surfaces are cleaned or get wet, helping manufacturers and rule-makers keep things safe and working well.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.
A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
