CONTENTS
Plasmacluster technology uses plas-
ma discharge to produce and release
the same positive and negative ions
as those found in nature ("Plasma-
cluster ions").
This is a unique air cleaning technol-
ogy of the SHARP CORPORATION
for breaking down and inactivating
such potential allergens as the faecal
matter or corpses of aerial mites*
1
,
viruses*
2
and mould and bacteria*
3
suspended in the air, and has been
substantiated by third-party organisa-
tions both in Japan and overseas.
When there is a high density of Plas-
macluster ions in the air, the smell of
cigarette smoke trapped in curtains
or sofas is removed in about 80 min-
utes*
4
, and when clothing is hung in
a place exposed to the direct air ex-
pelled from the unit generating Plas-
macluster ions, the smell of sweat is
reduced to a virtually imperceptible
level in one night (about 6 hours).
