Quantum HD 9021 Marine Radio User Manual


 
UVC rays are useful thanks to their bactericide and ozonizing capacity, so
they are used in the field of sterilization; another field of application that is
being developed is in the polymerization of adhesives or resins (photoresi-
st); as a drawback they cause more serious cases of erythema and
conjunctivitis than UVB rays.
Depending on the effects that they produce, ultraviolet rays may also be
classified as follows:
Producing ozone in the field 180÷220 nm
Producing bactericide (germicide) action in the field 220÷300 nm
Producing erythematous action in the field 280÷320 nm
Black light in the field 320÷400 nm
