Claims9
An antimicrobial composition which contains an inorganic compound on which silver ion is supported and a compound represented by the following formula (2):
- ##STR9## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen or methyl and R.sup.2 is hydrogen, or an alkali metal salt thereof, wherein the inorganic compound on which silver ion is supported is represented by the following formula (1):
- Ag.sub.a M.sup.1.sub.b M.sup.2.sub.2 (PO.sub.4).sub.3.nH.sub.2 O(1)
- wherein M.sup.1 is at least one ion selected from alkali metal ion, alkaline earth metal ion, ammonium ion and hydrogen ion, M.sup.2 is a tetravalent metal, n is a number which satisfies 0.ltoreq.n.ltoreq.6, and a and b are positive numbers which satisfy a+mb=1 where m is a valence of M.sup.1.
In a flowable composition which is hardenable to a rigid form, comprising a base material which is hardenable to a rigid form, an inorganic microbicide comprising silver ion, and a benzotriazole discoloration inhibitor, the improvement
- wherein the inorganic microbicide comprising silver ion is represented by the following formula (1):
- Ag.sub.a M.sup.1.sub.b M.sup.2.sub.2 (PO.sub.4).sub.3.nH.sub.2 O(1)
- wherein M.sup.1 is at least one ion selected from alkali metal ion, alkaline earth metal ion, ammonium ion and hydrogen ion, M.sup.2 is a tetravalent metal, n is a number which satisfies 0.ltoreq.n.ltoreq.6, and a and b are positive numbers which satisfy a+mb=1 where m is a valence of M.sup.1, and
- wherein said benzotriazole discoloration inhibitor is a compound of the formula (2):
- ##STR10## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen or methyl and R.sup.2 is hydrogen, or an alkali metal salt thereof, said microbicide being present in the range of 0.05 to 50 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of said base material, and said discoloration inhibitor being present in an amount of 0.1 to 100 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of said microbicide.
