Plastic additive manufacturing, often referred to as 3D printing, has revolutionized various sectors, including automotive, aerospace, healthcare, and consumer products. This innovative technology not only enhances production efficiency but also offers unprecedented design freedom that traditional manufacturing processes cannot achieve. The use of plastic additives in this context plays a crucial role in optimizing the properties of the final products, tailoring them to meet specific performance and aesthetic requirements.
In recent years, chloramines—compounds formed when ammonia is combined with chlorine—have gained popularity as a secondary disinfectant. Chloramines are less reactive than chlorine and produce fewer harmful by-products, making them an attractive option for long-term water distribution systems. They provide sustained disinfection, reducing the risk of pathogen regrowth as water travels through pipes. However, while chloramines have advantages, they may not be as effective against certain pathogens, necessitating the need for thorough monitoring and sometimes additional treatment methods.
