Any materials scientists around who can explain something?

17. Ozone will oxidize rubbers and plastic more quickly.

It's the oxidation/ionization process that also reduces floating dust particles in the air. The dust will fall heavily in the same pattern as the ionized air.

I used to have ozone air cleaners in my dental practice. I noticed that the rubber gaskets & plastic tubing and connectors in the operatories and ancillary areas were cracking and breaking down much faster than usual, so more replacements were in order.

Few other choices for medical products.

Good luck with it.
