With the increasingly serious air pollution, it is urgent to build a good indoor environment. How to improve performance of filter fiber materials has become the mainstream approach. In this article, the structure and filtration performances of nonwoven filter fibers before and after impregnation with carbon black were tested and analyzed. The results showed that a carbon black coating layer was wrapped on the surfaces of the changed nonwoven fabric filter fibers. The porosity of fibers decreased from 97.81% to 95.35%. The filtration efficiency of PM1.0, PM2.5, and PM10 increased by 16.8%, 28.0%, and 11.7%, respectively, at the best filtration velocity of 0.8 m/s. The filtration efficiency of PM2.5 had the most significant improvement. But the resistance increased by 1.18 times at the same time. The matching between filtration efficiency and resistance should be considered in using. This study provides reference value for the synthesis and application of new filter materials.
