UV-C is essentially a shorter, more energetic wavelength of light that is ideal for destroying genetic material, both in humans and viral particles. In nature, it’s typically filtered out by ozone in the atmosphere long before it reaches human skin. Since it was discovered in 1878, artificially produced UVC has become a prime method of sterilization, which is mostly used in hospitals, airplanes, offices, and factories every day. Read more to see how Samsung 0° Clean uses this light to disinfect face masks.
The Samsung 0° Clean consists of a detachable cylindrical battery-unit and a UV-C sanitizing flat-bed. When you’re ready to use it, simply lay a surgical or cloth mask in the bed, close the lid, and turn the device on. The UV-C light will then disinfect the mask, while hot air ensures that it stays dry, and after a few hours, you’ll be ready to wear it again. Not just a battery unit, the display also shows how much dust and particulate matter is on the mask.
