IIT Madras-incubated Start-up Muse Wearables is developing novel and scalable methods for coating textiles with nanoparticles-based antimicrobial agents that can 'inactivate' the human Coronavirus on contact. The coating, with a life of nearly 60 life cycles, can be primarily used to manufacture N95 masks, surgical masks, PPE kits and food packaging bags, among others, with inherent properties of inactivating the coronavirus.
