The life of a mask is a filter. As an MB(melt blown)
nonwoven fabric, it is almost used for disposable
masks, and the higher the flatness of the Mb
nonwoven fabric, the higher the filter efficiency.
The purpose of purchasing masks is to protect the
respiratory system from fine dust. To do this, the mask is completely attached to your face, and it
is recommended to buy a mask that is not big or small.
Nonwoven fabric, the main material of the mask, is known to have no side effects on the skin, but it would
be safe to use products that have been tested for acid
& alkali, pigment, and formaldehyde.
When wearing a mask, the support of the nosepiece can be completely adhered to the
nose and used to fit the face to prevent external
harmful factors. At the same time, it is recommended to adjust the maskstrap so that both cheeks are fully attached to the mask.
The filter efficiency decreases when the mask is wrinkled
or the filter is deformed, so it's good to keep it in its
original shape at room temperature.
Non-woven fabric is 3 years from the date of manufacture, and imported products may
be stated as 5 years. Please check the
mark of the product.
This refers to a mask that officially checks safety tests and verifies safety through regular inspections. In other words, masks without the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety's approval for non-medical products are not reliable in safety.
The types of masks are divided into yellow dust prevention masks, yellow dust masks, and sneeze
guarding mask depending on performance.
Depending on the method, there are face filtration (cup) masks, filter replacement masks, and direct
flat masks, which are divided into 3D and 2D masks according to their shape.
The "banghandae" is a respiratory mask for warmth, and
there is difficulty in blocking external harmful substances.
