2. Description of the Related Art Since hydrogen sulfide has a strong odor even in a very small amount, there is a strong interest not only in ordinary households but also in public places. In the precision industry such as the semiconductor industry, sulfur components in the air affect the performance and yield of semiconductors, and it is necessary to make the concentration of hydrogen sulfide in the production environment extremely low. Chemical filters for the semiconductor industry show good removal performance for ammonia, sulfur dioxide, boron and the like in the air, but none of the filters for hydrogen sulfide have satisfactory removal performance. In the ion exchanger chemical filter, a strongly basic anion exchanger having a quaternary ammonium group has a performance of removing hydrogen sulfide. However, in the air, 300 pp of carbon dioxide gas is present.
m or more, carbon dioxide gas is adsorbed within a short time, and the ion exchange group is saturated. In that state, the removal of hydrogen sulfide, which is a weaker acid, is not sufficient. Further, there is a problem that a strong hydrogen sulfide odor is generated from the adsorbent that has adsorbed hydrogen sulfide, and a problem that the removal rate is reduced when the humidity in the air is low (50% or less). Therefore, an efficient removal material for low-concentration hydrogen sulfide in air has been desired.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention has been made based on the following findings. Silver ions readily react with hydrogen sulfide to produce silver sulfide. Therefore, if silver ions are immobilized on the adsorbent at high density, a material exhibiting excellent adsorption ability to hydrogen sulfide can be obtained. Since the graft side chain has high mobility, particularly in a state where an ion exchange group or a chelate group is introduced, the conversion efficiency to a silver form and the hydrogen sulfide removal performance after adjustment to a silver form are large. The fiber having a cation exchange group or a chelate group as a functional group can easily chemically adsorb silver ions to the fiber by contact with an aqueous solution such as silver nitrate. When producing high molecular materials such as fibers, fibers containing silver ions can be produced by kneading silver nitrate, etc., but the density of silver ions is low and the rate of dissolution and diffusion of hydrogen sulfide into the fibers is low. Is small, so the removal performance is poor. Ion exchange fibers having a crosslinked structure
The conversion efficiency to silver mold and the diffusion rate of hydrogen sulfide into the fiber are small, and the removal performance is not sufficient. Silver sulfide, which is a reaction product, is retained inside the fiber, and is not emitted as fine particles to the outside.

Next, the configuration of the present invention will be described. The base material into which the side chains are introduced in the present invention is a single fiber having a diameter of 30 μm or less, a woven fabric or a nonwoven fabric which is an aggregate of fibers, and further processed products thereof. Not only can it be easily processed into a filter form which is a use form for the purpose, but also the surface area is large, so that the performance of removing low-concentration hydrogen sulfide is great. When the diameter exceeds 30 μm, the pressure loss is reduced, but the removal performance is deteriorated. In addition, polyolefin-based fibers are not only advantageous in that they have high chemical resistance and are easy to be heat-fused at the stage of non-woven fabric formation, and are also easy to be subjected to radiation graft polymerization as described later. Material. As the cation exchange group introduced as a side chain in the present invention, a sulfonic acid group, a carboxyl group, a phosphate group, and the like are generally used, and any of them can be used in the present invention, but is not limited to this range. . As the chelate group, any of an iminodiacetic acid group, an amidoxime group, an aminophosphate group and the like can be used, but it is not limited to this range. Since both the ion exchange group and the chelate group are strong hydrophilic groups, they adsorb water around. Since these work effectively, even when the humidity in the air is low, there is little influence on the performance of removing hydrogen sulfide.

Next, the radiation graft polymerization method used in the present invention will be described. Since the graft chain has no cross-linking structure, when a charged functional group such as a cation exchange group or a chelate group is introduced, the graft chain swells due to repulsion of the same charge and absorbed water. Radiation graft polymerization can uniformly generate radicals even in fibers having a complicated shape to the inside, and can introduce a graft chain. The radiation graft polymerization method includes a pre-irradiation graft polymerization method and a simultaneous irradiation graft polymerization method depending on the irradiation method. The former is a method of irradiating a polymer substrate in advance with radiation and then contacting it with a monomer (polymerizable monomer), and the latter is a method of irradiating radiation where both the polymer substrate and the monomer are present. However, either method can be used. Further, there are a liquid phase graft, a gas phase graft, an impregnated gas phase graft, and the like, depending on the method of contact between the monomer and the polymer substrate. In the case of a fibrous substrate exhibiting the effects of the present invention most, the impregnated gas-phase graft polymerization is preferable because the utilization efficiency of the monomer is large and the graft polymerization can be performed uniformly.

The radiation used for the radiation graft polymerization is
There are gamma rays, α rays, β rays, electron beams, ultraviolet rays, etc.
Practically, gamma rays, electron beams, ultraviolet rays and the like are suitable. The absorbed dose is preferably 200 kGy or less.
In the hydrogen sulfide removing material of the present invention, since the fiber surface is the main reaction site, it is sufficient that the graft side chain can be introduced at a high density near the fiber surface. Therefore, ultraviolet rays having low energy can be used. Monomers that can be used for radiation graft polymerization include acrylic acid, methacrylic acid, sodium styrenesulfonate, sodium vinylsulfonate, and the like having a cation exchange group, and any of them can be used, but is limited to this range. Not in translation. Monomers that can be converted to a cation exchange group include glycidyl methacrylate, styrene, acrylonitrile, and the like, but are not limited to this range. After these are graft-polymerized, a secondary treatment is performed by a known method to introduce a cation exchange group. For example, after graft polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate, sulfonation with an aqueous sodium sulfite solution is possible. Acrylic acid or methacrylic acid having a carboxyl group can be easily grafted alone, has a low grafting rate, a large exchange capacity, a silver type with a high removal rate, and low costs, and is suitable for the present invention. .

It is also possible to use a plurality of these monomers in combination. For example, sodium styrenesulfonate is difficult to graft-polymerize alone to polyolefin-based fibers, and thus can be used in combination with acrylic acid or methacrylic acid. In order to introduce a chelate group, an iminodiacetic acid group can be introduced by a known method such as graft polymerization of glycidyl methacrylate or chloromethylstyrene, followed by treatment with an aqueous solution of sodium iminodiacetic acid.
The amidoxime group can be introduced by graft polymerization of acrylonitrile, followed by amidoximation with an aqueous solution of hydroxylamine hydrochloride or the like. When the compound has a carboxyl group, it can be easily converted to the silver form by contacting it with an aqueous solution of silver nitrate after conversion to the sodium form. In the case of a sulfonic acid group, it may be brought into contact with an aqueous solution of silver nitrate as it is in the H form without conversion to the sodium form. Here, if halogen ions are present, silver halide is formed and the quality is deteriorated such as blackening by light. Therefore, it is necessary to remove chlorine ions and the like from water in particular.

Next, the hydrogen sulfide removal filter will be described. A woven or nonwoven fabric, which is an aggregate of fibers, can be easily formed into a filter and is suitable for the present invention. Also,
If the basis weight is not more than 25 g / m 2 , the silver ion carrying amount in the whole filter becomes small, and a sufficient life cannot be obtained. When it is 25 g / m 2 or less, sufficient strength cannot be maintained in a physically and chemically hard environment in radiation graft polymerization and subsequent secondary treatment, and it is difficult to form a pleated mold. If the air permeability is not more than 30 ml / cm 2 · sec, the pressure loss when the filter is processed becomes too large, and the flow rate may not reach the predetermined amount. When silver ions come into contact with hydrogen sulfide, black silver sulfide is formed. Before contact, the color is light brown, so the black discoloration area expands from upstream to downstream. If replaced before the black color is transferred to the entire downstream side of the filter, hydrogen sulfide having a predetermined concentration or more will not flow downstream. As described above, by comparing the color tone between the upstream side and the downstream side of the filter, the life of the filter can be predicted. Further, the color tone of the hydrogen sulfide filter is considered to vary depending on the use environment and the operating condition of the filter, so it is convenient to prepare color samples before and after use.
