NUS develops way to turn mesh bags into haze-busters
A team of researchers led by Asst Prof Tan Swee Ching from the Dept of Materials Science and Engineering at NUS Faculty of Engineering has developed a nanofibre solution that can turn an average mesh laundry bag into a haze-buster – by transforming it into an air filter that can block out harmful PM2.5 particles. The thin, see-through air filter can remove up to 90 per cent of PM2.5 particles, and allows better airflow 2.5 times higher than conventional ones.
