N95 masks are a type of respiratory protective device designed to filter out at least 95% of airborne particles, including fine dust, smoke, and certain viruses. The "N95" designation comes from the U.S. National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), which certifies that the mask meets specific filtration efficiency standards. These masks feature a tight-fitting design that forms a seal around the nose and mouth, preventing unfiltered air from entering. They are typically made of multiple layers of synthetic fibers, which work together to trap particles through mechanisms like impaction, interception, and electrostatic attraction. Unlike cloth masks, N95 masks are more effective at blocking both large and small particles, making them crucial in environments with high airborne risks, such as healthcare settings during pandemics. Proper usage is essential: users must ensure a correct fit by adjusting the nose clip and checking for leaks. N95 masks should not be reused unless specifically approved for extended use, as contamination or moisture can reduce their effectiveness. Additionally, they may feel restrictive during prolonged wear due to the resistance when breathing, but this is a trade-off for their high filtration capability. Overall, N95 masks play a vital role in protecting wearers from hazardous airborne substances when used correctly.
