A new mask designed to protect the human respiratory tract with a special filtration system, with
In addition, during testingempirically, it was proved that the graphene mask retains its original qualities and characteristics for at least seven days. This figure is also very impressive. Since an ordinary medical mask can reliably protect a person for several hours, and the mask recommended by WHO to protect against infection with coronavirus can cope with its functions for no more than two days.
Effective material
Graphene mask called GuardianG-Volt, and its developer is LIGC Applications. The specialists of this company, searching for material for the most effective protection of the human respiratory tract and drew attention to the antibacterial properties of graphene. Further, it turned out that graphene under the influence of a low-level electric current is not able to delay and accumulate various viruses and bacteria.
Therefore, the developers came up with a geniusthe idea is to create a filter for a protective mask from graphene and connect it to a portable battery device that will constantly supply a low charge of electric current to the filter. As a result, the filter must retain its original protective properties. As it turned out, during studies conducted by independent experts, the developers were completely right in their conclusions. The graphene filter really works as efficiently as possible within one week.
Rechargeable
It is noteworthy that the mask and filter can be periodically sterilized, and the portable battery device is recharged once every seven days from a special dock.
In order to launch its productioninvention, the developer company organized a fundraiser at one of the crowdfunding venues. All those who want to participate in this event and the owner of one protective mask with a laser graphene filter can contribute their $ 39 to the common piggy bank.
Developers note that relevance in theirMasks are now more than ever greater, but they have worked on its creation over the past five years. This time was enough for them to conduct independent research and examinations, as well as to search for a company that will manufacture laser graphene filters.
Already today, the developer said that collected atAt the moment, there is enough money to launch the mass production of protective masks, which should begin in April 2020. However, these products will not go on sale until September, so participation in the developer’s crowdfunding company is still relevant.
Recall that while there is not oneeffective protective mask than the one mentioned above. The fact is that its filter is capable of retaining particles less than two tenths of a micron in size. These are the dimensions of the "Chinese" coronavirus. Yet the rest of the masks available, retain particles with a minimum size of three tenths of a micron.
In fairness, it is worth noting that thisthe company is not the only one who drew attention to the properties of graphene. The British company Haydale recently announced its development. However, its products have yet to be tested and tested for effectiveness.
