A filtration barrier comprises at least one barrier layer which includes polymeric nanofibers interlaced with microfibers, and at least one substrate layer which includes polymeric microfibers. The filtration barrier can be made by electrospinning process.
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A filtration barrier, comprising: a nanofiber layer that includes a plurality of first nanofibers that are made of a combination of cellulose acetate (CA) and polyethylene oxide (PEO); and a biocide layer that attaches to the nanofiber layer, and that includes a biocide and a plurality of second nanofibers that are made of the combination of the CA and the PEO, wherein the biocide accounts for 0.5%-2% by weight in the biocide layer. 2. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the biocide covalently binds to the second nanofibers by a cross-linker. 3. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the biocide binds covalently to the second nanofibers by a cross-linker, and the cross-linker is organic titanate (TTE). 4. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the biocide is chlorhexidine (CHX). 5. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the CA accounts for 10%-20% by weight of the combination of the CA and the PEO. 6. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the PEO accounts for 0.05%-0.2% by weight of the combination of the CA and the PEO. 7. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the nanofiber layer bears positive electrostatic charges. 8. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the biocide layer includes a porosity of 90-98%. 9. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein a diameter of the first nanofibers in the nanofiber layer is in a range of 50-700 nanometer (nm), and a diameter of the second nanofibers in the biocide layer is in a range of 100-900 nm. 10. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the filtration barrier includes a plurality of the biocide layers and a plurality of the nanofiber layers. 11. The filtration barrier of claim 1 , wherein the biocide layer and the nanofiber layer are assembled with a nonwoven layer that includes polypropylene meltblown microfibers.
