Scientists say new disinfectant protects surfaces from coron

Kind of amazing, wonder how much trouble it is to apply:
The surface coating lasts "significantly longer" than conventional disinfectants that use alcohol or bleach, which lose their function as the liquids evaporates, according to HKUST. To help achieve this, it relies on heat-sensitive polymers that its inventors say responds to contamination from touch or droplets. It does this by releasing a larger amount of disinfectant when it senses an increase in temperature that can take place whenever our hands touch a surface or when moisture from droplets.

This one must not have worked very well:
In terms of infection control, we developed PECD antimicrobial coating, a sterilizer that removes up to 99.99% of different infectious viruses. Using it as a coating on air-particulate filters in air purification systems in hospitals aids the effort to contain transmission of viruses. The technology was adopted for use at Wuhan’s Huoshenshan Hospital, an emergency hospital constructed specifically to battle the coronavirus outbreak.

What are the side effects of this new product?

So many new compounds appear where the side effects are unknown for
years - such as - what is killing all the insects?

Perhaps fungicides?

Any time you want to add a new chemical or biological product to the
environment you run the risk of serious side effects that are simply
unknown. How do you test? Allow limited use for several years in only
one area and monitor all life forms both in and around the area for
adverse effects, along with at least one control group, preferably a few.

Ohhhh, Scientists!
