Scientists at the MPI-P and global partners have developed a new type of air filter using a liquid coating to trap even nanoscale particles – just like mucus in the nose. 🌬️
The result: better air quality, less energy use, and a big step toward smarter filtration. 🌍 www.mpip-mainz.mpg.de/en/pm2025-19
