The MOxAdTech face mask has successfully passed all the tests carried out at the João Lobo Antunes Institute of Molecular Medicine (iMM) making it the first textile face mask capable of inactivating the virus that causes COVID-19. The mask’s innovative coating neutralises the SARS-CoV-2 virus if in contact with the fabric.
“Testing on MOxAdtech face masks showed that the virus is effectively inactivated up to 50 washes, with a 99% viral reduction one hour after being in contact with the virus, as per the parameters for testing laid down in international standard ISO18184:2019.”
