Precautions when purchasing masks
1. Mask type: Choose the appropriate mask type according to different needs and environments. Common masks include medical masks, N95 masks, KN95 masks and ordinary dust masks. Medical masks are mainly used for medical purposes. N95 masks and KN95 masks can effectively filter particles in the air. Ordinary dust masks are suitable for daily life.
2. Brand certification: Give priority to certified brand masks, such as masks that meet national standards, FDA certification or CE certification (Europe). Certification is an important indicator to ensure the quality and effectiveness of masks.
3. Texture and filtration efficiency: Choose a mask with good texture. The material should be soft, comfortable and non-irritating. Pay attention to the filtration efficiency of the mask. A high-quality mask should be able to filter most particles and bacteria.
4. Appropriate size and fit: The size of the mask should fit the face appropriately, completely cover the mouth and nose, and reduce the chance of external particles entering the respiratory tract.
5. Breathability: When using the mask, ensure good breathability to avoid discomfort or difficulty breathing. Breathability can be achieved through materials and design, and some masks may have breathing valves to provide better ventilation.
