About NanoHack
Our innovation is inspired by the scarcest product these days, the
famous and scarce N95 masks.
Basically, there is a breakdown in the global stock of this product, and
it is a basic necessity, especially for Healthcare personnel who are at
the forefront of fighting this disease. In many countries the
authorities have also recommended the use of these masks (or similar) on
public transport. These masks, despite being effective, also have some
problems such as a short lifecycle (about 8 hours), and have another
even more serious problem. Respiratory viruses, specifically SARS-Cov-2
(COVID-19) can live up to 72 hours on different surfaces. This is a
problem since using a conventional mask, at the end of the day we would
have a high viral/bacterial load trapped within millimeters of our nose
and mouth, further exposing ourselves to these dangerous microbes.
