Polypropylene fabric is a man-made fabric made from Thermoplastic polymers (plastic). It is breathable, has moisture-wicking properties and is most commonly used in Sportswear, cold weather undergarments, military wear, and tote bags.

The Government of Canada has recommended non-woven polypropylene for the filter layer in masks. Below is an excerpt from the Government of Canada webpage on Non-medical masks and face coverings:

Filters

Filters add an extra layer of protection against COVID-19 by trapping small infectious particles. Consider wearing a mask that includes a filter or filter material as one of its layers, such as:

non-woven polypropylene fabric, which can be found as:
- a craft fabric
- the non-woven fabric that's used to make some reusable shopping bags
a disposable filter inserted into a pocket on the mask

The I-LINE 150 is a 1.5 oz Polypropylene made from spun bonded fibers. The Spun Bond makes the product washable, but it still should only be washed in cold

and air dried. No hot dryer. No direct IRON as it will melt. Use a drop/pressing cloth between the iron and the polypropylene.
