Carbon Capture Coatings:

Can Paints and Coatings Save Humanity?

Carbon Capture Coatings have the power to significantly reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, thereby lessening the impact of global warming. Carbon Capture Coatings are bio-engineered such that, when exposed to sunlight, they capture and fix atmospheric carbon dioxide. These coatings support living cells capable of carrying out photosynthesis, the process by which Nature captures and fixes atmospheric CO2.

Did you know?

If we continue on the track we’re on now, by 2050, we will see:

  • A rise in sea levels by up to 20 inches;
  • Heat “beyond the threshold of human survivability:”
  • The collapse of ecosystems collapse including the Amazon rainforest, coral reefs, and the Arctic.
  • A fall in global crop production by at least 20 percent.
  • And the forced migration of billions of people due to unbearable heat, along with food and water shortages.

Carbon Capture Coatings Work

Formulated to support algae growth

Thin and almost weightless, so can go very high vertically

Can be engineered to allow sunlight, but protect against UV

Can allow for the free exchange of gases in the atmosphere

When sequestered, the by-product, cellulose is formed

Cellulose can be repurposed into many products, such as building materials, clothing, or even plastic bottles

Carbon Capture Coatings at Work

Did you know?

Because paint is thin and almost weightless with good adherence, it can be used on vertical surfaces reaching as high as we want to go, capturing as much CO2 as we desire? The sky’s the limit!

ProteCoat: Anti‑Microbial Peptides that protect against micro‑organism infestation.*

Naturally‑occurring peptides, alone and in combination with other bio-based molecules, have proven effective in numerous independent 3rd party testing against bacteria, molds, fungi, algae, and certain viruses.

Did you know?

Peptides have been the subject of increasing interest in food, materials preservation and food packaging.

Carbon Capture Coatings Work

Simple 7 L-Amino Acid Chain

Synergism with existing anti-microbials

No Environmental Persistence

Contains no heavy metals

Vegetative Cells and Spores

Does NOT cause anti-microbial resistance

Broad-Range of Susceptible Microbes

Even against pathogenic microbes:

ProteCoat at work!

Let’s compare ours to theirs

Microban, whose active ingredient is the preservative tricolsan, has been banned for certain uses by the US

FDA. Paint Shield, whose active ingredient is a quaternary silane, has recently been banned by certain US

 hospital systems and in Europe.

 

In all ways, ProteCoat is equal to Microban and Paint Shield ...except where it's BETTER!

The market for ProteCoat is deep and wide.

Wherever coatings go to protect surfaces, ProteCoat can protect against micro-organisms.

Reactive Surfaces is at the leading edge of this "green revolution" in biocide manufacturing.

*ProteCoat is not registered as a pesticide with the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), pursuant to the Federal Insecticide Fungicide and Rodenticide Act, 7 U.S.C. §136 et seq. (1996). Products containing ProteCoat may require EPA or other regulatory approvals. Reactive Surfaces makes no claim herein that ProteCoat can be sold for use as an antimicrobial to kill pests under the Act without first obtaining any and all required regulatory approvals and registrations.

Witness the power of Enzymatic Self‑Cleaning Coatings made with DeGreez

Enzymatic self‑cleaning functionality for everything from electronics to autos, solar panels to eyewear, kitchens to sewer pipes.

Did you know?

That Reactive Surfaces' DeGreez enzymatic additive formulated into YOUR coating will actually BREAK DOWN natural greases, fats and oils...on contact! And it works over and over again for the life of the coating..

Other anti‑fingerprint coatings merely cause the oils to bead up on the surface. Once these oils smear on the surface, they no longer work.

Let’s compare ours to theirs

Oil is actually removed from the surface as opposed to bubbling up on the hydrophobic surface

The market for DeGreez is deep and wide.

Self-cleaning materials is a multi-billion dollar market, and Reactive Surfaces DeGreez enzymatic technology is so effective, that products containing this technology will be poised to capture the market share in their industry.

... the market for self-cleaning materials (including hydrophobic, hydrophilic, electrostatic and catalytic materials) will grow to around $3.3 Billion by 2020.

Enzymatic additives that decontaminate surfaces of Organophosphorous chemical weapons upon contact.

WMDtox is capable of being applied to surfaces common to a war fighters’ environment, and its decontamination capability has been successfully demonstrated in both in-house and 3rd party testing against many of the most-common and destructive nerve weapons and nerve weapon analogs.

This technology could be of significant importance in dealing with sensitive equipment or vehicle/facility interior decontamination. While it may not eliminate the need for decontamination in these situations, it could reduce the extent of decontamination required as well as the potential concentration of agent vapors.

            –NATO Army Armaments Group Decision sheet September 2002

On the right, the iPad is protected with OPDtox, and on the left it is not. We then expose both iPads  to chemical weapons. We added fruit flies to see if they would live or die when exposed to the iPad  after contamination. OPDtox keeps the flies on the right safe, while the flies on the left are “dropping like flies.”
