The N95\/FFP2 and N99\/FFP3 masks protect us, but they are difficult for the wearer because they are quite thick in texture, so inhaling and exhaling is quite difficult. There are also studies that they cause carbon dioxide retention (buildup). Our mask is similar to a surgical mask, we have a boron filter in the center that we place with special nanotechnology. We compared the permeability of the surgical mask, N95\/FFP2, N99\/FFP3 and our boron mask in terms of volatile organic compounds and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which are important chemical pollutants. We found that the boron mask we produced was the least permeable and protected the most from pollutants in the environment. We found that the viral and bacterial filtration of the masks is equivalent to N99 and N95 masks, and their use is more comfortable than them.\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She said that they believe that the masks will be effective in environments with volatile organic compounds, air pollution and chemicals found in all areas of life as well as in the health sector: \u201cOur masks can be used in all areas of the hospital, intensive care, operating rooms, emergency rooms, clinics, as well as in the auto industry, paint industry or different industries where chemical pollutants are present.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-we-expect-support-from-investors-for-the-commercialization-of-the-mask-nbsp\"><strong>\u201cWe expect support from investors for the commercialization of the mask\u201d<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>\u0130l\u00e7e emphasized that they have taken the initiative for the mass production of masks, saying: \u201cWe have made international patent applications for the masks.
