Scheme 1.
A Use of cellulosic surgical masks as a platform material to develop catalytic materials upon the incorporation of TiO2 nanoparticles and FexOy/CoOx nanozymes. This procedure avoids the uncontrolled disposal of surgical masks. B Scheme with the preparation of catalytic substrates onto cellulose non-woven layers showing the macroscopic appearance of the masks before and after incubation with nanoparticle solutions (stored in the vial)
