These advanced reusable masks have
three filters: a Nonwoven filter, a
Coarse filter, a Nanofiber filter, and a
supporting layer. The supporting layer can
kill coronavirus as soon as it enters the mask

One of the successful strategies for the design of promising new energetic materials is incorporation of
both fuel and oxidizer moieties into the same molecular structure. Therefore, during recent years, synthesis of
various nitro‐azole derivatives, as compounds with more balanced oxygen content, became very popular
