Antimicrobial refers to materials or substances infused with antimicrobial additives and agents to stop the growth of microorganisms that cause fever and infections, such as bacteria, fungi, algae, yeasts, mildew, and other parasites. Microorganisms that develop on untreated particles produce foul odors, polymer breakdown problems, and discoloration. Antimicrobial compounds are used to prevent the development of these microorganisms in the final products.
