APPLICATION BULLETIN MagIQ™ Nonwoven Electret Additives for Protective Face Masks Electret additives are used in the manufacture of nonwovens for protective face masks to impart long- lasting filtration properties. Avient makes no warranties or guarantees respecting suitability of either Avient’s products or the information for your process or end-use application. In order to ensure the middle layer in a face mask can effectively block up to 95% of airborne particles, the material requires the addition of a specific additive prior to the meltblown stage followed by a process known as electret charging.

Our polymer solutions and engineering materials include colorants for identification and differentiation, additives for added properties and functionalities, and thermoplastics that can withstand harsh chemicals and reagents. Make your lab and POCT in vitro diagnostic devices safe, accurate and easy to use with healthcare dedicated color and additive polymer solutions and thermoplastics.
