 yle="text-align: justify\;"><strong>Asbtract</strong>:&nbsp\;The use of fa
 ce masks is advised in order to reduce the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 viru
 s. However\, not everyone knows the differences between different mask typ
 es and if they can be reused. In this talk\, I will discuss the current st
 ate of knowledge on the topic of face masks. I will explain the mechanism 
 of particle filtration and present filtration efficiencies as a function o
 f particle size for commercial respirators and common fabrics used in clot
 h masks. I will talk about disinfecting N95 masks – how and how many tim
 es it can be done without reducing filtration efficiency\, according to re
 cent studies. This talk is NOT related to my research. It is based on rece
 nt publications in the field of materials science concerning respiratory p
 rotection.</p>\n<p>Hosted by <strong>Anna Roig and Martí Gich</strong>\,
