<p>A filter that includes a first electret filter layer through which an airstream first passes before encountering a second electret filter layer. The first filter layer exhibits nondecreasing removal efficiency and removes a majority of a challenge aerosol; whereas the second layer exhibits decreasing removal efficiency and has an initial quality factor greater than the first layer. Together, the first and second electret filter layers can provide a filter that exhibits a nondecreasing removal efficiency and a relatively low pressure-drop. The filter can provide nondecreasing removal efficiency and reduced pressure drop even though the second electret filter layer exhibits decreasing removal efficiency in contrast to the desired nondecreasing removal efficiency for the filter as a whole.</p> |
