Highly efficient air filter inspired by mucus-covered nasal hair
Nature, Published online: 09 July 2025; doi:10.1038/d41586-025-02125-5Airborne particles adhere to filters only weakly. A filtration strategy that mimics the effects of the mucus layer coating nasal hairs captures particulate matter effectively, owing to a mechanism called capillary adhesion. Filters using this technology perform better than conventional air filters and have a longer lifespan.
