How negative ions clean the air - short video presentation

What are positive and negative ions?

There is a constant movement of positive and negative ions in the atmosphere. Negative ions are essential for the normal functioning of the human body. The oxygen we breathe into our lungs penetrates the blood through the alveoli only because of its negative charge. However, the insufficient amount of negative ions in the air is becoming increasingly problematic. In living spaces, there are only 20-30 of these particles per cm³. For an optimal climate, it is most beneficial if the room where we spend most of our time has the largest possible amount of negative ions, which beneficially purify the atmosphere. We all know how pleasant it is to breathe air in the forest or near large bodies of water. There, the amount of negative ions is extremely high. Experts cite the figure of 2000 negative ions per cm³, which is why they recommend staying near large bodies of water, e.g. lakes, rivers, and the sea. Negative ions are created by a strong impact or high voltage, which literally shoots negative ions out of atoms. In nature, large amounts of negative ions are released during lightning strikes, as well as at waterfalls, where we feel comfortable in the company of falling drops and breathe naturally fresh air. A deficiency of negative ions has a detrimental effect on health, and people are increasingly using various devices that add negative ions to the atmosphere.

How do negative ions from the IONEX air ionizer purify the air?

IONEX air ionizer using high voltage, they release negative ions from a carbon brush without the presence of ozone. Due to their physical properties, the latter bind all the dirt in the air, i.e. positive ions, such as submicrometer particles of soot and exhaust gases, dirt, dust, formaldehyde, resin secretions, cigarette smoke, viruses, bacteria, odors, dust mite feces, etc., which no filter can stop and are constantly deposited in the lungs (the smaller the dust particles, the deeper they penetrate the lungs and the more harmful they are to the organism). Negative ions cling to positive ions/particles and "force" them to fall to the ground from where they cannot rise again.

The beneficial effects of negative ions on health and infection prevention

In addition to the negative ions from IONEX air ionizer clean the air up to 100%, at the same time they also have a beneficial effect on health. Negative ions have a beneficial effect on the body, as they reduce all respiratory and bronchial problems, colds, asthma, allergies, reduce stress hormone levels, regulate blood pressure, pulse and increase concentration, well-being and better sleep. They significantly reduce the number of colds - flu, angina, cough, because they do not allow bacteria and viruses to move. Droplet infection occurs because the virus is allowed to move through the air, because it clings to floating dirt and travels to humans. Since ions remove all dirt from the air, viruses and bacteria no longer have anything to cling to in the air and fall to the ground along with the dirt, from where they cannot rise again.
