The invention provides a silver-based inorganic antibacterial agent
dispersion that has excellent dispersibility and storage stability and
allows the silver-based inorganic antibacterial agent to fully exhibit
its antibacterial performance. Furthermore, it provides an
antibacterial-processed product that is processed using this silver-based
inorganic antibacterial agent dispersion. The silver-based inorganic
antibacterial agent dispersion of the present invention is one that
includes a silver-based inorganic antibacterial agent, a discoloration
inhibitor, a thickener, a dispersant, and a dispersion medium. It is one
that includes 5 to 60 parts by mass of the silver-based inorganic
antibacterial agent in 100 parts by mass of the above dispersion, and 0.1
to 10 parts by mass of the thickener relative to 100 parts by mass of the
silver-based inorganic antibacterial agent, one that includes an
imidazole series compound and/or a benzotriazole series compound as the
discoloration inhibitor, and one that includes a polysaccharide or a
cellulose-based thickener as the thickener.
