The authors of the article state that electrospun nanofibres can outperform their melt-blown counterparts in many applications, especially air filtration. The finding is backed by data monitored with the Palas\u00ae PMFT 1000.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7283\" src=\"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"754\" height=\"510\" srcset=\"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2.png 754w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2-300x203.png 300w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2-24x16.png 24w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2-36x24.png 36w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2-48x32.png 48w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/1-2-600x406.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 754px) 100vw, 754px\" \/><br \/>\nIncreasing awareness of the correlation between air quality and human health has led to a rise in the demand for improved personal protection from airborne pollutants and disease-causing microbes. In this respect, electrospun nanofibres (NFs) provide unique capabilities if used as an active protective layer in facemasks. When compared with commonly used filters containing melt-blown (MB) fibres, electrospun NFs provide enhanced protection against airborne particles, bacteria, and viruses such as COVID-19.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-7284\" src=\"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"562\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-1.png 562w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-1-300x138.png 300w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-1-24x11.png 24w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-1-36x17.png 36w, https:\/\/palas.com.cn\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/2-1-48x22.png 48w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 562px) 100vw, 562px\" \/><em>SEM micrographs of melt-blown fibres and ES nanofibres from FilterLayr<sup>TM<\/sup><\/em><\/p>\n<p>The article introduces the electrospun nanofibre filter media, FilterLayr<sup>TM<\/sup>.
