Scientific Novelty
The filtering half-mask consists of innovative materials: bamboo fabric with a density of 45 g/m2, fine-fiber polypropylene meltblown material, and spunbond-meltblown-spunbond material.
Advantages
The half-mask provides a high level of respiratory protection and weighs 7.5 g, which is significantly lower than the weight of the vast majority of high-protection class filtering half-masks. The use of efficient materials that are pleasant in contact with the skin ensures comfort during operation.
Commercial implementation
At underground mining enterprises; chemical, metallurgical, and other industrial facilities where personnel activities involve high-intensity work.
