Table 3. Pore size and cover factor in fabrics in layer I (L1) and layer II (L2) of type II masks.

The mean pore size and cover factor was calculated form ten and five measurements, respectively.

Masks Layer I pore size
(mean ± σ) μm
Cover factor (mean ± σ) Layer II pore size
(mean± σ) μm
Cover factor (mean ± σ)
