Thermo-Enzymatic Inhibitors
TECH
A few rare fungi actually feed on plastic — digesting uPVC window frames and trims from within — and for these, ordinary cleaning does nothing. This protocol combines controlled heat with chemistry that shuts down the fungus's digesting enzymes, stopping the damage at its biological source. It is the bespoke answer to one of the more unusual threats a modern building faces.
Thermo-Enzymatic Inhibitors (protocol P-M5) are the mandated intervention for thermotolerant polymer-digesting fungi — the 'Plastivorus' F-01 Rare-Monster class that metabolises synthetic substrates such as uPVC. The protocol combines controlled heat with enzyme-inhibiting chemistry to shut down the fungal enzymatic pathways degrading the polymer, halting the digestion at its biochemical source. It is a substrate-protective, monster-specific protocol that pairs with heritage thermolysis in the family of heat-assisted, non-abrasive treatments.
