Masks are essential for us now. They are a very important line of defense against our own infection. But you know what? Recently, a public health expert said that the masks we are wearing may need to be upgraded. FFP2 mask is the mask we need now.
What should I pay attention to when using FFP2 mask?
Wear it correctly: wear FFP2 mask correctly, make sure the mask covers the mouth, nose and chin, and the nose clip should be compacted.
Timely replacement: FFP2 mask shall be replaced in time in case of dirt, deformation, damage and peculiar smell. The cumulative wearing time of each mask shall not exceed 8 hours.
No reuse: masks used in cross regional public transport or hospitals are not recommended to be reused;
Hanging and placing: FFP2 mask that needs to be reused should be hung in a clean, dry and ventilated place when not in use;
Take off when you feel uncomfortable: if you feel suffocated or short of breath during FFP2 mask, you should immediately go to an open and ventilated place to remove the mask;
Carry for standby: when going out, carry a spare FFP2 mask and store it in the original packaging bag or clean storage bag to avoid extrusion and deformation. The discarded mask is classified as other garbage.
What is the importance of FFP2 mask?
On January 10, an employee in the restaurant area of a hotel in Rome, Italy checked a man's enhanced "green pass".
The Italian government announced a mandatory mask order before Christmas last year, requiring people to wear "FFP2 standard" masks with high protection level when taking public transport such as planes, trains, ferries and subways. Nowadays, when entering restaurants, cinemas and gymnasiums, in addition to showing the "green pass" to prove that they have been vaccinated with the new crown vaccine or have recovered from infection, they must also wear FFP2 masks throughout the process.
According to the regulations of the Italian government, if the FFP2 mask is worn during close contact with the new crown infected person, the isolation can be exempted on the premise of the second or booster injection of the new crown vaccine.
What is the raw material of FFP2 mask?
FFP2 mask is mainly composed of three layers of non-woven fabric. The inner layer is ordinary non-woven fabric, which is mainly used to absorb the moisture and water released by the wearer; The outer layer is a non-woven fabric with waterproof treatment, which is mainly used to isolate the liquid ejected by the patient; The filter layer in the middle of the core uses polypropylene melt blown non-woven fabric treated by electret as a barrier to prevent bacteria. FFP2 mask was born. The "seven step" petroleum is distilled and cracked to obtain propylene. The polymer formed by propylene addition polymerization is polypropylene (PP) particles. The working principle of polypropylene fiber melt blown non-woven fabric obtained by melting and shaping polypropylene particles is to draft the polymer melt trickle extruded from the die spinneret hole with high-speed hot air, so as to form ultrafine fibers and agglomerate on the receiving device, and become non-woven fabric by self bonding.
Xiamen PinzTec Co., Ltd has been concentrating for several years on the development and production of FFP2 masks. And she is committed to providing every customer from all over the world with a perfect service.
