    Medical Network, March 18, China Medical Materials Association released the group standard of "Copper-containing Filter Half Mask" in Hefei, Anhui Province on the 16th, which is also the world's first group standard for inactivated masks
    .
    The copper-containing filter half mask is a new type of inactivated mask made of copper-containing non-woven fabric as the main material.
    It uses the anti-microbial properties of copper ions and can directly contact inactivated bacteria, viruses and fungi
    .
    Inactivated masks not only put forward extremely high requirements on the form, content, product design and production process of the combination of copper ions and non-woven fabrics, but also require that the copper shedding rate must be within the safety range of the human body, which has high technical requirements and barriers
    .
    The group standard of "Copper-Containing Filter Half Mask" released this time covers the technical requirements, inspection methods, labeling and packaging, transportation and storage of inactivated masks
    .
    The main criteria include bacteria filtration efficiency not less than 95%, particulate matter filtration efficiency not less than 90%, and the amount of copper shedding is less than 1% of the maximum intake that the human body can tolerate
    .
    According to Huang Yuhao, Chairman of Anhui Box Health Technology Co.
    , Ltd.
    , the representative of the group standard drafting unit of the "Copper-containing Filter Half Mask" , the shape of the inactivated mask is no different from the ordinary mask, and the copper ions contained in it are killing the bacteria in contact.
    Viruses and other microorganisms can still remain in the mask, so theoretically the number of uses of inactivated masks can reach 60 times
    .
    Huang Yuhao said that at present, the company has developed a variety of new products such as copper oxide inactivated masks and polylactic acid fully degradable antibacterial masks, which are exported to more than 10 countries and regions including the United States, Britain, Japan, and Germany
    .
    Chen Hongyan, secretary general of the Medical Devices Branch of the China Medical Materials Association , said that China is the world's major producer and exporter of epidemic prevention materials, and various new technologies and new products are constantly being born .
    The formulation and release of the group standards for inactivated masks will improve the quality of masks and encourage companies to
    Provide qualified anti-epidemic materials to the domestic and foreign markets
