@Stellar @Baa Without knowing specifically what the mask is made out of or having testing equipment, that's a bad idea. There has been research on sterilization for reuse (shortage concerns and not being made out of money), and most of them tolerate low dry-heat for hours (in proper dry-heat sterilizer units) better than autoclaves. I think UV was also tested in a few of those whitepapers and found worse than dry-heat. (This was testing in relation with Covid contamination. Other stuff might resist sterilization enough that there really is no option other than destroying the masks.)
