ELECTRET CHARGING Electret charging works by improving the crystallinity and mechanical deformation of a material, to prevent electret charging from drifting.
Charging only works when the correct additive solution is utilized, and together with the fiber denier, gram weight and number of layers, it ensures the middle layer of protective masks can effectively trap small airborne particles.
