A recently filed patent (Publication Number: US20240035690A1) describes a filter element for air conditioning units that incorporates graphene into a textile substrate, enhancing its performance. The graphene used in the filter element consists of nano-platelets with specific dimensions and is applied both on and inside the textile substrate. The amount of graphene present ranges from 2g to 20g per square meter of textile substrate, with variations in the application amount affecting the filter element's properties such as antibacterial and antiviral activities.
The method for manufacturing this innovative filter element involves impregnating a textile substrate in an aqueous bath containing graphene nano-platelets. The graphene used in the process has specific characteristics, including a carbon-oxygen ratio of =100:1. The resulting filter element exhibits enhanced antibacterial and antiviral activities, surpassing industry standards. The air conditioning unit incorporating this filter element offers improved filtration efficiency and air quality, with the graphene composition contributing to its performance. The patent highlights the potential for graphene-based filter elements to revolutionize air conditioning systems by providing superior protection against harmful particles and microorganisms, ultimately benefiting indoor air quality and human health.
