Is the protection effect of PM2.5 better than N95 masks

Is the protection against PM2.5 better than N95 masks?
Gas masks such as 3m (mainly filter cotton is working, such as 6200), which can protect against water vapor or organic gas. Is it against PM2.5? Is the effect better than masks?
The gas mask used for spray protection is mainly used for toxic gases, and the gas molecules are on the order of nanometers in diameter.
The diameter of pm2.5 particles is on the order of microns, and the difference between the two is a thousand times. In theory, of course a gas mask is good.
But from a practical point of view and cost-effectiveness, after all, gas masks are inconvenient to wear when going out in haze and the price is much higher than that of anti-haze masks.
General painting environment, 3M 6200 gas mask is equipped with 6006 gas filter box, the gases that can be protected include organic vapor, chlorine, chlorine dioxide, hydrogen chloride, sulfur dioxide, hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen sulfide, ammonia, methylamine, and formaldehyde.
