Biodegradable Facemasks: Biodegradable, Efficient, and Breathable Multi‐Use Face Mask Filter (Adv. Sci. 6/2021)

2021 
In article number 2003155, Jeyoung Park, Dongyeop X. Oh, Sung Yeon Hwang, and co‐workers report a biodegradable, moisture‐resistant, highly efficient, and breathable face mask filter based on easy‐to obtain poly(butylene succinate) coated with chitosan nanowhiskers. Integrated microfiber/nanofiber mats present a particulate matter removal efficiency as high as the commercial N95 filter due to a combination of physical sieving and electrostatic adsorption.
