What Makes Nanotechnology-Based Air Filters Effective?
The primary advantage of nanotechnology in air filters lies in the use of nanomaterials such as nanofibers and nanoparticles. These materials have a high surface area-to-volume ratio, which enhances their ability to capture and neutralize airborne contaminants. Nanofibers, for example, can form a dense mesh that traps particles as small as a few nanometers, including viruses and bacteria.
