Negative Ion Mask: Improving Lung Function

Haze has now become a familiar climate term for the public. With haze breaking through the capital economic circle and heading for the whole country, the haze economy has also risen to a higher level. Recently, a new type of negative ion mask has been born in the market, adding a new army to the family of anti haze masks. Unlike most of the current anti haze masks, by increasing fiber density or filtering methods to prevent haze, the negative ion mask is mainly through negative ion conversion technology to mask the release of forest anion to capture and settle air pollutants.

Anti haze mask more chaos

So-called Fog and haze mask In addition to having the function of preventing respirable dust from entering the respiratory organs by ordinary masks, the main purpose is to prevent PM2.5 from being inhaled by human body.

"Technically speaking, there are two types of haze respirators that are more popular in the market today. One is to isolate inhalable particulate matter by increasing fiber density. The other is a respirator with built-in activated carbon and other filtering materials for air purification. At present, these two methods have encountered some technical bottlenecks. A person with considerable research on the current anti haze mask product told reporters.

According to him, the current increase fibre The way to increase the isolation effect has come to a "difficult to add" level. He said, "if you want to effectively block the bacteria, the diameter of the yarn must be nanoscale, because the bacteria and viruses are mainly micron scale, and the respirators made of nanofibers can resist 100% more than the fine dust such as PM2.5. Although nanofibers have mature samples in the laboratory, they have not been able to mass produce. First, the technology is not mature, and the two is the high cost of production.

In addition to the technical difficulties, another major problem in the market of fog prevention and haze mask is that there are various products and no uniform technical standards. At present, there is no clear national standard for anti haze masks in China, and the safety standards, production approval and market access system of haze mask, mask and other products are also in the stage of unestablished or imperfect.

In September of this year, the Beijing city commercial and industrial department found that its "anti fog haze" and "anti PM2.5" were suspected of false propaganda when examining the masks brand names.

Under such chaos, how to choose a suitable anti fog and haze mask has become a test of the ability of consumers to identify. At this point, the emergence of negative ion mask has helped consumers solve this problem.

Negative ion mask for haze prevention

Speaking of the application of negative ion technology to textiles, some consumers who are usually not concerned about the application of textile technology may not be familiar with it, but now this technology has been relatively mature in the industry.

Li Qingshan, a professor at Yanshan University, recently led the research team to successfully develop a negative ion anti fog and haze mask. According to him, in the medical field, negative ions have long been recognized as an effective means to kill germs and purify the air, but how to actually apply this technology to products is a difficult problem. In 90s, negative ion dedusting technology has attracted much attention. "Ecological science" has reported that "negative ions have the function of dust removal. PM2.5 is easy to adsorb, aggregate and settle under the action of negative ions, so that the air can be well purified. Negative air ions can also inhibit the growth of bacteria and viruses.

"The main principle of this mask is to take negative ions to purify the air and keep away from the original ecological health, so as to protect the PM2.5. The main raw materials are natural mineral nanomaterials, and a variety of non-metallic minerals and plant materials are added. The respirator has a permanent release of more than 800 Hydroxyl Anion /cm3, which has a strong effect on active adsorption of positive ions. Li Qingshan said.

It is understood that most of the masks are anti haze by enhancing density and filtering methods, but the anti haze means of negative ion mask is another way.

The core of this technology is to release 1000 /cm3 negative ions from the respirator by negative ion conversion technology, and actively capture and settle the positively charged pollutants in the air. It has the effect of resisting PM2.5 and the following dust. The negative ion filter layer can form an electric field around it, ionize the negative ions of the air, and actively capture the positive pollution source. The pollution source neutralizes directly with the negative ions, purifying the air around the mouth and nose, forming a layer of isolation layer, so as to achieve the effect of preventing haze. Li Qingshan said.

It is understood that the United States Nelson NELSON laboratory testing report shows that the negative ion mask respirator dust-proof rate of up to 99.9%. At present, the technology has been put into practical production of respirators.

　 Negative ion mask, anti haze more health care

Wearing a mask that does not conform to the quality standard will do harm to the body, but few people will think that wearing a good respirator can also play an additional protective role on the body. Negative ion mask is such a product that has both health protection and haze prevention.

Medical research shows that the negative oxygen particles in the air increase the oxygen content in the blood, which is conducive to the transportation, absorption and utilization of blood oxygen. It has the function of promoting the metabolism of the human body, improving the immunity of the human body, enhancing the human muscle energy and regulating the balance of the body's function. According to the textual research, negative ions can inhibit, relieve and assist the treatment of nearly 7 kinds of diseases in 30 systems of the human body, especially the health care function of the human body is more obvious.

Jiangsu Arashiyama New Material Co., Ltd. has been focusing on the application of negative ion technology since many years ago. Arashiyama staff told reporters that anion in the medical profession known as "air vitamins", and the human nervous system, respiratory system, circulation system, immune system and metabolism have some improvement and regulation.

"Negative air ions can reduce blood pressure. It can improve cardiac function and myocardial malnutrition, increase the content of hemoglobin in blood, reduce blood sugar, increase pH, shorten blood coagulation time and stimulate hematopoietic function of the body. At present, some people in China have treated negative leukocytes with simple peripheral leukocyte reduction and radiotherapy induced leukocyte reduction. In addition, negative ions also have a sedative effect, it can improve the function of the cerebral cortex, stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, and then achieve the effect of eliminating fatigue, improving sleep, enhancing appetite and improving work efficiency. Arashiyama staff said.

Effective elimination of smoke and dust, eliminating the smell of the air, eliminating toxic gases, blocking PM2.5, and negative ion mask are not only in place, but also "sideline".

According to the staff of Arashiyama, Negative ion mask While preventing fog and haze, it also has the function of improving lung function. It can speed up the movement of respiratory fiber and hair tissue, increase respiratory coefficient (20% increase in oxygen uptake, increase 14.5% in platoon CO2), enhance the ciliary movement of tracheal epithelium, increase the secretion of glands, and promote the regeneration of nasal epithelial cells, restore the secretion function of mucosa, and also have certain benign effects on the treatment and recovery of respiratory diseases.

Negative ions affect the body's carbohydrates, protein, fat metabolism and water and electrolyte metabolism. Inhaling negative ions can reduce blood sugar, cholesterol and potassium content, increase urine output and urinary nitrogen and creatinine excretion. At the same time, it can affect the enzyme system, activate various enzymes in the body, promote the metabolism of the body, increase the oxidation process of brain, liver, kidney and other tissues, accelerate the basic metabolism, and promote the growth and development of the body. Arashiyama staff said.

Anti haze and health care, negative ion mask will inevitably become a great artifact for people to travel this winter.
