What Types of Nanomaterials are Used in Air Purifiers?
Several types of nanomaterials are employed in air purifiers, including:
Nanofibers - These are used in filter media to increase surface area and improve particle capture efficiency. Metal Oxide Nanoparticles - Such as titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO), which are used for their photocatalytic properties to break down organic pollutants. Carbon Nanotubes - Known for their high adsorption capacity, they are effective in trapping gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
