Zusammenfassung: | The multifunctional development in the field of face masks and the growing demand for scalable manufacturing have become increasingly prominent. In this study, we utilized high-vacuum magnetron sputtering technology to deposit a 5 nm ultra-thin Ag-Cu film on non-woven fabric and fabricated ultra-thin Ag-Cu film face masks. The antibacterial rates against
and
were 99.996% and 99.978%, respectively, while the antiviral activity against influenza A virus H1N1 was 99.02%. Furthermore, the mask's ability to monitor respiratory system diseases was achieved through color change (from brownish-yellow to grey-white). The low cost and scalability potential of ultra-thin silver-copper film masks offer new possibilities for practical applications of multifunctional masks. |
