London, UK -- (SBWire) -- 04/24/2015 --Antimicrobial additives can be defined based on their production, use, benefits, function and regulation. An antimicrobial additive is a chemical compound primarily used in the form of coatings, paints and mixed with plastic. Both oil-based and water-based additives are available in various forms for end-user industries. From the commercial prospective, an antimicrobial additive is used to reduce or inhibit the growth of microorganisms in any surface or in the atmosphere (as sprays) to maintain hygiene and increase life of products. It protects various plastic products, packaging materials, buildings through coatings, hospitals and other places from decay. Some limitations of antimicrobial additives are that they are less active in fatty foods and work best in low fat food with PH less than 6. They give best results when combined with other microbial. In recent times, the market for antimicrobial agents have grown tremendously due to their numerous applications. The market is projected to grow at a healthy double-digit CAGR from 2014–2020.
