The face mask is one of the most formidable sources of external protection that has been researched extensively due to the current pandemic situation. The variety of masks have evolved according to their efficacy and applicability, with one of the most exciting variants using the latest antiviral treatment technology called ViralOff and nanofiltration technology.
Transmission Electron Microscopy, or TEM, is a microscopy technique that uses a beam of electrons instead of light to form the image.
It is often essential to work under high- or ultra-high vacuum (HV/UHV) to gain a fundamental understanding of these materials.
X-ray scattering analysis (SAXs) can be used to analyze polymer nanocomposites, a high performance class of materials.
