Masks are essentially air filters worn on the face, that should filter out as many of the dangerous particles as possible. Here the dangerous particles are the droplets containing virus that are exhaled by an infected person. Woven fabric is unlike the material used in standard air filters. Woven fabric consists of fibres twisted together into yarns that are then woven into fabric. There are therefore two lengthscales: the diameters of: (i) the fibre and (ii) the yarn. Standard air filters have only (i). To understand how woven fabrics filter, we have used confocal microscopy to take three dimensional images of woven fabric. We then used the image to perform Lattice Boltzmann simulations of the air flow through fabric. With this flow field we calculated the filtration efficiency for particles around a micrometre in diameter. We find that for particles in this size range, filtration efficiency is low ($\sim 10\%$) but increases with increasing particle size. These efficiencies are comparable to measurements made for fabrics. The low efficiency is due to most of the air flow being channeled through relatively large (tens of micrometres across) inter-yarn pores. So we conclude that our sampled fabric is expected to filter poorly due to the hierarchical structure of woven fabrics.

Country United Kingdom 
Sector Academic/University 
PI Contribution Dr Dan Pantos has been using the 13C-cryoprobe and spectrometer to analyse samples which are completely inaccessible using the existing Bath NMR capabilities (<1 milligram of large molecules). This has further led to data being obtained with Bristol's 600MHz 1H-cryoprobe system, which has enabled us to measure data on even more demanding samples (<500micrograms of large molecules).
