Barrier fabrics for protection against aerosols: Textile Progress Vol. 26 No. 1S M Maini, S P Hersh and P A Tucker
The authors review the behaviour and control of aerosols as they influence their penetration through fabrics together with the key parameters that affect their performance - such as porosity, tortuosity, and pressure drop. The theories of air filtration and the various mechanisms of particle capture and retention by filter media are examined in detail. Current standards and experimental test methods for measuring filtration of aerosols through nonwoven fabrics are researched and analysed in detail. The issue contains 57 references to specialist articles, patents, and other sources of information.
