You just keep digging yourself deeper.
It seems you’re trying to compare an electrostatic precipitator type of air purifier with a face mask (I wasn’t about to pay for the full article, just to confirm that). The key difference is the gaps (plate separation) — over 3,000 nm vs ~ 30 nm for masks. Electrostatic forces are subject to the inverse-square law. If 10,000 volts are required for a 1/8” gap (> 3,000 nm), then, just over 10 volts would be required in a cloth mask.
I paid attention in some of my college physics classes.
Wolf’s order says simply “a cloth face covering”.
So an Alyssia Milano crocheted mask would qualify.
This is not about health.
...just over 10 volts would be required in a cloth mask.

... and where is that continuous voltage differential coming from.
“just over 10 volts would be required ....”
Should be: “... 1.0 volts ....”
