<p>Photocatalysts, electrets, and hydrophobic surfaces are geometrically integrated to achieve a self-cleaning air filter, fabric, or surface. This can be incorporated into surfaces and apparel to wick, disinfect, deodorize, and clean their surfaces with the action of the photocatalyst, water, and light on absorbed chemicals, bacteria, funguses, viruses, and particulates. The photocatalysts can be electrically connected to achieve electro-osmotic control and electrical energy output. This leads to protection from chemicals, bacteria, funguses, viruses, and greater humidity control and comfort in apparel, structures, air cleaners, and in particular, eyewear.</p> |
