In US news and current events today, the inventor of the N95 masks is coming out of retirement to help develop a method to sterilize the masks. Peter Tsai is a material scientist and engineer who, nearly 30 years ago, developed the filtration tech used in N95 masks. Though he retired from his post at the University of Tennessee in 2019,\u00a0Tsai is getting back\u00a0to work to help find a way\u00a0to safely disinfect\u00a0N95 masks. N95 masks are\u00a0
<\/br>in short supply because of the coronavirus pandemic. Some hospitals have reportedly resorted to cleaning N95 masks with soapy water,\u00a0bleach, or alcohol. But experts warn against these methods\u00a0because they could damage the masks. Tsai says he\u2019s studying\u00a0if exposure to heat can decontaminate N95s.<\/p>\n
