Triosyn Corp. has developed a novel technology to control disease-causing
microorganisms and to treat microbial infections. Its core
®
technology—Triosyn resin—is an iodinated polymer that interacts with and
devitalizes microorganisms through an ionic demand-release mechanism
that is sensitive to their presence and concentration.

®
Triosyn is effective against bacterial spores, viruses, protozoa,
algae and fungi.
Pure iodine crystal is thermally fused with a specialized polymer via
a proprietary manufacturing process patented by the Corporation.
®
Triosyn is safe to humans and the environment because it
releases iodine only in the presence of demand-causing
microorganisms and only in amounts required to eliminate the
source of the demand.

TRIOSYN® AIR FILTRATION COMPOSITE
®
Triosyn interactive polymer can be impregnated in a low pressure
drop membrane, without increasing its resistance to air. In
contrast, high efficiency particulate filters (HEPA) create
significant pressure drop across the filter membrane, requiring a
pump to move air through the membrane. Research has shown
®
that Triosyn technology enables low pressure drop membranes
to outperform HEPA filter materials in virucidal protection (see
Table 1), with only a fraction of the pressure drop. The single
®
mono-layer Triosyn composite forces harmful microorganisms,
including viruses, to come into contact with the biocidal resin. This
technology has applications for collective protection in NBC
warfare.

COLLECTIVE PROTECTION APPLICATIONS
®
Triosyn filter composite technology has many potential applications in
the realm of collective protection. The tent as shown previously is a
protective enclosure that guards against biological, chemical, and nuclear
attacks. The tent is primarily composed of non-permeable material, with
2
approximately 1 m of highly breathable Triosynated filter composite. As
the pressure drop is extremely low, no external power source is needed;
the action of the occupants’ breathing is enough to pull air through the
filter. The Triosyn composite media provides through the integration of a
treated particulate filtration by mechanical and electrostatic technology,
biocidal protection with the Triosyn polymer and chemical warfare
protection with chemically treated carbon.
®
The Triosyn composite’s ability to function without an external power
source readily aligns it with applications where power is too costly or there
is a risk of occasional failure. Possible applications include emergency
and portable protection scenarios, such as:
•
•
•
•
•
Ground troop movements.
Armored vehicles.
Military operations.
No requirement for energy permits a lightweight, portable
enclosure that is quick and easy to set up.
Low cost, comparable to existing bioprotective enclosures, allows
widespread deployment for better protection against possible
attack.
