Aerosol

  • We explore an experimental framework to evaluate the service life of a filtering mask, simulating continuous and intermittent high-concentration aerosol exposure, intense inhalation rates, and post-use storage conditions.
  • Advanced nanoscale characterization reveals aerosol loading mechanisms, linking exposure history to performance degradation.
