It took more than 100 years for human scientists to discover negative ions and apply them. In 1889, German scientists Elster and Gertel discovered the existence of negative air ions.

It took more than 100 years for human scientists to discover negative ions and apply them. In 1889, German scientists Elster and Gertel discovered the existence of negative air ions. German physicist Dr. Philip Leonard was the first to academically prove the effect of negative ions on the human body. In 1902, Asamas and others confirmed the biological significance of the existence of air ions. In 1903, Russian scholars published a paper on the use of negative air ions to treat diseases. In 1932, Hamsen of the American RCA company invented the world's first medical negative air ion generator.
Over the past century, the research on negative air ions has gone through a long stage of development and application in Europe, the United States, and Japan. China research on negative air ions began in 1978, and experienced two development peaks in the early 1980s and early 1990s. It is now entering its third development peak. Today, there are thousands of units and companies in China that specialize in the research and application of negative air ions.
At present, there are many kinds of negative ion health products active in the Chinese market. In addition to their application in the medical field, they are also widely used in all aspects of residents' health life. Medical negative ion generators can be used as medical devices in hospitals; civilian negative ion health products are more diverse, including negative ion health instruments, air purifiers, negative ion floor tiles, wallpapers, furniture, etc., as well as negative ion air conditioners, hair dryers and other household appliances, as well as negative ion bracelets, facial masks, sanitary products, etc. At present, China’s negative ion health industry has a short development time, and the market competition is insufficient. The industry is dominated by small and medium-sized enterprises, there is a situation of common competition among many small and medium-sized enterprises, and the market concentration is low, let alone the emergence of listed companies.
Why has the negative ion technology been developed for more than 100 years in the world and more than 40 years in China? However, it is remarkable that in China,there is still no listed company with negative ion technology as its main business. There are actually many complex factors behind this phenomenon.
First of all, the limitations of technology maturity and application scenarios cannot be ignored. Traditional negative ion technology has major defects, which leads to the fact that traditional negative ion generators are prone to produce ozone odor, the negative ion concentration is very low or even no negative ions are produced after a year or two, and dust accumulation is prone to sparks and odors under high pressure, posing safety hazards, etc. Therefore, further innovating and improving traditional negative ion technology is very important.
Nowadays, the light negative ion technology originally developed by Chinese people has gradually overcome these defects. After years of accumulation and painstaking research, Guangdong Cosio Lighting Co., Ltd.has creatively combined the light element and negative ion element, innovatively upgraded the traditional negative ion technology, upgraded the negative ion technology to light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology, it has four major functions: healthy light, forest oxygen bar, air purification, sterilization and disinfection, solving the defects of traditional negative ion technology.
Light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology has eight technical features:
1.Prevent leakage.The light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology is added to the intelligent control system, which automatically cuts off the power when people approach to prevent the risk of leakage.
2.anti-static. Ordinary negative ion technology will produce static electricity when it discharges to the human body or metal objects, but light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology adds an intelligent sensor control system to prevent such static electricity from being generated.
3.Anti-fire. Because the negative ion emitter will collect dust after working for a long time, and the dust will spark under high pressure. The light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology has added a self-cleaning function, which can effectively maintain the cleanliness of the generator and avoid sparking caused by excessive dust.
4.Explosion-proof.Traditional negative ions have high-voltage ignition phenomena and can explode near combustible gases. Light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology eliminates this hidden danger thanks to a safer intelligent sensing system.
5.Ozone free.When ordinary high-voltage negative ion technology produces negative ions, it will discharge in the air to produce ozone, a byproduct, which can harm the human respiratory tract and oxidize organic matter. The specific wavelength of ultraviolet light in light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology can effectively reduce ozone to oxygen, eliminating the effects of ozone.
6.High concentration. Traditional negative ion emitters will collect dust after working for a long time, reducing the concentration of negative ions. Light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology products have a self-cleaning function and can maintain the generation of high-concentration negative ions for a longer period of time.
7.Highly active. Light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology suppresses the by-products produced when negative ions are generated, increases the concentration and activity of negative ions, and the activity of negative ions is higher than that produced by traditional methods.
8.Self-cleaning. The general negative ion emitters are built-in and difficult to clean without disassembling the machine. However,The self-cleaning function of the light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology is implemented automatically. The generator can be regularly cleaned and maintained without manual intervention, ensuring the generation of high-concentration negative ions and the long-term effectiveness of the machine.
Negative ions have many benefits for the human body. As an original Chinese technology, light negative oxygen ions (LNOI) technology has unlimited potential for future development. Cosio Lighting will continue to work hard to further promote the development of the negative ion market.
