Il fastidioso muco nasale che vi ostinavate ad attaccare sotto i banchi di scuola (confessate) è in realtà un filtro biologico perfetto. Gli scienziati coreani lo sanno bene, e hanno copiato il suo meccanismo: risultato? Filtri dell'aria che durano il doppio e catturano il 30% di particelle in più. La biomimetica batte ancora la tecnologia tradizionale.
