Disposable face mask material can be divided into outer layer, filter layer, inner layer, nose wire, ear loops and optional additional materials. Each material has its specific function and role in the disposable mask to ensure that the mask can provide effective protection and a comfortable wearing experience.
The outer layer is usually no-woven fabric, which has waterproof and anti-droplet functions, protecting the inner filter layer from external pollution. Melt-blown non-woven fabric is the core filter layer of the mask, usually made of polypropylene, with high-efficiency filtering performance. Some disposable mask materials will add a layer of activated carbon to absorb harmful gases and odors, which is suitable for protection needs in specific environments.
The function of the face mask disposable non woven is to prevent the mutual infection between medical staff and patients in the medical process. Generally, the mask should be soft, with good air permeability, barrier, and filtration to pathogens and dust. The surgical face masks are usually made of spun bond non-woven fabric, PP meltblown non-woven fabric, composite non-woven fabric or composites with melt-blown nonwoven fabric as an interlayer. The filtering effect of the surgical face masks material is more than 90%, or even higher, so as to prevent infection. Material characteristics of medical face mask disposable non woven: high strength, high-temperature resistance (long-term use at 150 C), anti-aging, ultraviolet resistance, high elongation, good stability and air permeability, corrosion resistance, sound insulation, moth-proof, non-toxic.
