Q)What does "Nano" mean?
A)"Nano" is the Greek word for "dwarf" and is used in the art as order of magnitude as for example environ-, centimeters and kilograms are used. "Nano" means "one billionth of something." A nanometer is one billionth of a meter (10⁹ m). A human hair is about 80,000 nanometers thick. And one nanometer compare to one meter, such as a small football compares to the earth.
 

Q)What is nanotechnology?
A)"Nanotechnology" refers to the examination, processing and application of materials and objects with a size of 1 to 100 nanometers, so this is at a molecular level.
 

Q)Do Piggy Proof products contain nanomaterials?
A)The Piggy Proof Premium Protectors and Piggy Proof Active Perfume contain silicon dioxide (SiO2). In terms of size the Silica particles used in Piggy Proof correspond with the "nanotechnology" definition.
 

Q)What is Silica?
A)Silica is an important component of glass, it is very hard, practically insoluble and resistant to many chemicals. The ultrathin layer formed with the Piggy Proof Premium Protectors is extremely strong, long-lasting and invisible.
 

Q)How "new" is the use of Silica?
A)The technology that Nano Silicon dioxide is produced dates back to the early 1950s This specific form of nanotechnology has been used for a long time. Recent innovations make Silicon dioxide suitable for use in advanced coatings that make materials extreme moisture and dirt repellent. It is thus a superior and less health and environmental impact alternative to coatings based on fluorocarbon resins. Despite Silica Nano material has a much longer history of safe and widespread use than more recently developed nano materials such as carbon nanotubes and quantum dots.
 

Q)Why does a surface which is treated with Piggy Proof Premium Protector become moisture and dirt repellent.
A)The Silicon dioxide in Piggy Proof changes the way in which the surface reacts to dirt and moisture. The surface energy is reduced, there will virtually be no wetting of the surface, therefore a water drop will off the surface.
 

Q)What happens to the Silica if the Piggy Proof Premium Protector or Active Perfume is used?
A)If the product is applied to a surface it forms a film that dries. When the film dries, the silicon dioxide particles form a very strong covering three-dimensional network. The concatenation of nanoparticles to the "large" three-dimensional network is irreversible, therefore, there is no longer any question of "free nano-sized particles" after drying.
 

Q)How stable is the three-dimensional network of the dried silica particles? Are Nano particles released as the coated surface is sanded or in any other way (mechanicly) taxed?
A)The three-dimensional network formed by the drying of the product is greatly strongly bonded to the underlying surface. Any particles released as a result of the (mechanical) strain of the coated surface at all times concatenated particles with a size bigger than "nano dimensions." It is not possible from the fully dried silicon dioxide layer to form re-Nano particles.

Q)Is there a risk if inhalation of Nano Silica particles taks place? If so, do these nano particles penetrate deep into the body?
A)Piggy Proof Premium Protectors and Active Perfume contain Nano Silica particles. The products are sprayed with the aid of a pump spray onto the surface to be treated. The used spray nozzles form droplets with a size >100 micrometers, the size of these droplets is are big enough that they are trapped in the airways and do not reach the lungs.
