Estimating the term…
A process of making a mycological biopolymer of a mycomaterial filter comprising the steps of filling a scaffold with a nutritive substrate and a fungus, placing an encasement on the scaffold to seal the scaffold, said encasement having only one outlet therein open to fresh air and defining a vacant space, incubation of the sealed scaffold at high temperatures and carbon dioxide concentrations to induce biopolymer growth into the vacant space wherein the mycological biopolymer environmental conditions comprise an environmental temperature from 55° F. to 95° F. and carbon dioxide constitutes from 2% to 8% of the environment within the vacant space, and thereafter drying the produced mycological biopolymer.
A breathable mask having a shape suitable for covering the user's mouth and nose and in close contact with the user's face, comprising a means for holding the mask in a predetermined position on the user's face and a filter comprising one or a plurality of layers, the filter being arranged so that a user's inhalation and/or exhalation pass through the filter, and wherein the filter further comprises a mycomaterial substrate.
