Permeation Tests on Polypropylene Fiber Materials

Abstract

The Center for Bio/Molecular Science and Engineering at the Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) evaluated polypropylene nanofiber materials for their potential in air filtration to remove toxic vapors. This work was completed in parallel with the development of novel organosilicate sorbent materials directed at these applications. The fiber materials were evaluated independently as well as in combination with novel NRL developed sorbent materials.
