China's mask standards mainly regulate the two major areas of civil protection and medical protection. Civil protective mask standards GB/T 32610-2016 "Technical Specification for Daily Protective Masks" and GB 2626-2006 "Self-priming Filter Anti-particulate Respirator for Respiratory Protective Equipment" are mainly applicable to particulate matter protection and have played an important role in the prevention and control of this epidemic. However, barrier masks (mainly planar masks) used in large quantities after resumption of work cannot meet the above two standard requirements.
Masks are divided into medical masks and non-medical masks, (and the latest identified) civilian health masks.
China's mask standards mainly regulate the two major areas of civil protection and medical protection. Civil protective mask standards GB/T 32610-2016 "Technical Specification for Daily Protective Masks" and GB 2626-2006 "Self-priming Filter Anti-particulate Respirator for Respiratory Protective Equipment" are mainly applicable to particulate matter protection and have played an important role in the prevention and control of this epidemic. However, barrier masks (mainly planar masks) used in large quantities after resumption of work cannot meet the above two standard requirements. Medical standards GB 19083-2010 "Technical Requirements for Medical Protective Masks", YY 0469-2011 "Medical Surgical Masks" and YY/T 0969-2013 "Disposable Medical Masks" are mainly applicable to medical institutions. However, according to the use of masks and the use of people, the general public use of health (barrier) masks do not have appropriate standards. In order to better meet the urgent needs of the masses for sanitary masks during the epidemic, facilitate the adoption and application of standards by enterprises that produce/convert masks, ensure product quality and facilitate market supervision, the China Industry Association immediately studied and deployed, set up a working group to demonstrate and study the relevant standards and markets, and urgently submitted an application for the establishment of the group standard of "Civil Sanitary Masks" to the Standardization Technical Committee of the China Textile Industry Federation (hereinafter referred to as China Textile Federation). On March 11, the China Industry Association officially released the T/CNITA 09104-2020 "Civil Hygiene Mask" standard.
