Development Of A Prototype Of Industrial Respirators For Malay Male Users

Majority of the respirator used in Malaysian industries are imported from America. Therefore the facial characteristics of Malaysian were not considered in the design process. Thus, leakages may occur when respirator does not fit users. This study aims to develop a prototype of a half-mask respirato...
