Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic situation, more frequent disinfection actions have been carried out in our daily life. Either the display is under constant exposure to the disinfection spray/cleaning products, or people apply the disinfection gel on their hands and rub around their fingers. Afterwards, people continue their daily use on the display product. Therefore, the human hand motions cause additional chemo-mechanical stress on the display due to the residues from the disinfection products.

The use of disinfectants on touchscreen devices can be beneficial in preventing the spread of germs and bacteria. Disinfectants can help to reduce the risk of cross-contamination from one user to another, which can help to keep the device clean and safe for everyone.

However, it is important to note that the use of harsh chemicals or abrasive materials on touchscreen devices may cause damage. Some devices may be sensitive to certain chemicals or cleaning products, so it is important to use a mild, non-abrasive cleaning solution when disinfecting them. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the device is dry after cleaning to avoid any possible damage
