Can we wash an N95 mask and use again?
Title: Exploring the Reusability of N95 Masks After Washing As the global pandemic continues, the demand for personal protective equipment, especially N95 masks, has skyrocketed. With supply chain issues and shortages in various regions, the question arises: can we wash an N95 mask and reuse it to stretch its lifespan? While the initial intent of these masks is for single-use applications, the practicality of reusing them through washing is worth investigating. Does the washing process compromise the mask's filtration efficiency? Are there specific washing techniques or detergents that should be used? This inquiry aims to uncover the science behind the question, considering the material properties, filtering mechanisms, and potential risks associated with reusing washed N95 masks.
