AgION Antimicrobial — Built-in Protection for Your Phone Motorola has incorporated AgION antimicrobial into the painted surfaces of your phone to help provide protection against a broad range of product damaging bacteria, mold, and mildew. Motorola is the first wireless phone manufacturer to incorporate AgION antimicrobial into the phone's painted surfaces.
Page 10: How It Works
Safety • AgION antimicrobial protection is based on silver, a safe, non-toxic additive to the phone paint. Silver is widely used as an antimicrobial agent in many environments and industries. • AgION antimicrobial technology is safe to use. Thorough testing has shown the additive to be less toxic than table salt and less irritating than talcum powder.
