Description

The multipurpose ceramics balls constituent of a micro ionizing radiation

In the present invention, a small amount of ionizing radiation is emitted as well as far-infrared rays and anions are released, and antibacterial, deodorization, acetaldehyde and chlorine removal, alkalinization of water, increase of dissolved oxygen of water, oxidation The present invention relates to a composition of a multifunctional ceramic ball having a reducing effect, mineral elution, and water decomposition effect.

As is well known, there are ultraviolet rays and infrared rays emitted from the sun, and there are various types of infrared rays, microwaves, radio waves, ionizing radiation, and the like. In particular, ionizing radiation is used to ionize neutral atoms to cations and electrons. It has the energy to do it.

The easiest examples of ionizing radiation are x-rays and gamma rays, and alpha and beta rays emitted from radioactive materials and neutrons emitted during nuclear fission.

The main purpose here is to synthesize the oak charcoal powder and natural ore to form a ceramic ball, which emits far infrared rays and anions as well as a small amount of ionizing radiation. When the ceramic ball is immersed in bath water or wash water, blood circulation, It promotes metabolism, enhances various adult diseases and immunity such as skin care, anti-aging, headache, back pain, neuralgia, and balances nutrients such as calcium and iron, while molecules such as sweat, protein and fat It dissolves and removes odors, purifies blood, increases resistance, regulates autonomic nervous system, purifies air, removes dust, and sterilizes the body.

The far-infrared infrared ray is released when heat is applied to a ceramic made of an inorganic material, and a mat for a poultice (Korean Patent Application No. 2000-58021) has been developed.

Far infrared rays are invisible sunlight, which is a kind of electromagnetic waves, and sunlight rays are classified into visible rays and invisible rays, and infrared rays are classified into invisible rays, and are classified into near infrared rays, mid infrared rays, and far infrared rays.

Therefore, far-infrared rays are visible rays that are beneficial to the human body and are very long-wavelength light between 5.6㎛ ~ 1000㎛, which is vital to health promotion by promoting biological activities.

In addition, far-infrared rays proceed through space at the same speed as light, and when absorbed by an object, energy is converted into heat, and thus, there is an excellent effect such as heating a part of the subject, uniform heating and shortening of heating time, energy saving, and plant and animal growth effect.

Negative ions, called vitamins in the air, create an environment that purifies urban pollution and maintain or replace the human body with alkaline constitution.

In other words, the ions are invisible charged particles, separated into cations and anions, and the cations are various pollutants such as tobacco smoke, sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and the like. It cleanses and keeps it clean and fresh. The negatively charged air that is usually refreshed in the forest, waterfalls and hot springs is negative ions, which can be found in TVs, PCs, mobile phones and other electronic and electrical products. Emitted X-rays, ionizing radiation, ultraviolet rays, etc., have high energy, which causes the formation of cations in the air, and as the number of cations increases, asthma, bronchitis, headache, visual impairment, back pain, palpitations, nervousness, and tension It can cause illnesses such as heightening, menstrual irregularities, lethargy, depression, dermatitis and birth defects. However, negative ions are an atomic element of negatively charged air, which neutralizes harmful cations, and clears blood to promote nerve stability, fatigue, appetite, and cell activation.

Therefore, it is known that ceramics emit negative ions, and air cleaners containing ceramics and products that improve air purification, humidifiers, and water purifiers have been developed.

However, these conventional ceramic products are limited in their use in various applications because their functions are limited such as far infrared ray, anion emission function, and antibacterial function, respectively. In addition, in the case of antibacterial products, there is a drawback that the antibacterial activity is not so high, as well as having a far infrared ray emission or anion emission effect and a strong antibacterial effect, there is a growing demand for ceramic products having a variety of functions.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned drawbacks and to satisfy various functions, in which a small amount of ionizing radiation is emitted, antibacterial, deodorizing, far-infrared emission, anion release, acetylide and alkali removal of chlorine removal water, dissolved oxygen of water It is to provide a composition of a multifunctional ceramic ball having an enhanced mineral elution and water spray decomposition effect.
