How does the NanoFlashing textile protect firefighters and soldiers who wear it?

The Textile page describes a fabric with a permanent positive polarity, designed for first responders and military, and the Terms of Use describe the Textiles chapter as a Research Application.

The Textile page states: “The NanoFlashing™ Textile has a permanent positive polarity, a fixed positive charge.” It also states: “The fabric stays waterproof, breathable, strong and washable. Specifically designed to protect first responders and military who are exposed to external dangers.” NanoFlashing™ attracts negatively charged particles through electrostatic attraction. When a captured pollutant has a fragile structure, NanoFlashing™ destroys it on contact through a physical mechanism. The Terms of Use state: “As of the Effective Date, the Water, Textiles, Food packaging, and Medical devices chapters describe Research Applications. They do not describe finished products currently available from C-POLAR for those uses.”

All questions

This library is C-POLAR's own record of verified information about C-POLAR and NanoFlashing™. Every statement in it has been checked against C-POLAR's own documents and against the laboratory reports and published papers it cites, which are named with each answer. Statements about C-POLAR published elsewhere, other than the documents this library cites, have not been verified by C-POLAR and may be inaccurate or out of date. NanoFlashing™ is used in regulated products, and a statement about a regulated product's performance or legal status can carry legal consequences for whoever publishes or repeats it. Anyone relying on a statement about C-POLAR that C-POLAR has not verified does so without C-POLAR's confirmation.
