According to the use ratio of 1:100, 1 ton of Lanxess Sharp Control TM disinfectant can be diluted into 100,000 liters of disinfectant for use.

Reasonable disinfection and protection habits are effective measures to resist the epidemic.

The new coronavirus COVID-19 is highly similar to SARS and MERS and belongs to the same coronavirus family.
