【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、空気中のガス状汚染物質を除去する吸着材に関し、さらに詳しくは、アセトアルデヒドなどの低級脂肪族アルデヒドに対して、高い除去性能を持つ吸着材に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
室内や車内などの生活空間においては、悪臭や有害ガスなどの様々なガス状汚染物質が発生するが、生活環境の向上に伴い、これらガス状汚染物質を除去し、快適な生活環境を維持することに多くの関心が持たれており、空気清浄フィルターが使用されている。
【0003】
シート状活性炭とは活性炭を含有するフェルトやペーパーであり、例示すると、活性炭素繊維のフェルトや活性炭素繊維や微粒状活性炭を湿式抄紙法でシート化したものや、微粒状活性炭シートを乾式法でシート化したものなどがあり、これらはプリーツ加工などをされて、ガス状汚染物質を除去する空気清浄フィルターとして使用されている。
【0004】
生活空間で発生する主なガス状汚染物質としては、アンモニアを代表とする塩基性ガス、酢酸を代表とする酸性ガスやアセトアルデヒドなどの低級脂肪族アルデヒドがあげられる。これらのうち、アンモニアなどの塩基性ガスは鉱酸や有機酸をシート状活性炭に添着して中和反応により、また、酢酸やその他多くの有機ガス状汚染物質はシート状活性炭への物理吸着により除去されるが、アセトアルデヒドなどの低級脂肪族アルデヒドは他のガス状汚染物質に比べ除去が難しい物質である。
【0005】
この課題に対して、低級脂肪族アルデヒドの除去性能を向上した吸着剤の検討がすすめられてきた。低級脂肪族アルデヒドは、アンモニア誘導体などの求核試薬の攻撃を受けて求核付加反応を起こすことが知られており、アミンが低級脂肪族アルデヒドの化学吸着に有効であることが推定でき、アミンやアミン塩を多孔質体に添着した吸着剤が種々提案されている。
【0006】
特開昭56−53744号には活性炭にアニリンを添着した吸着剤、特開昭56−53744号には活性炭に塩酸ヒドロキシルアミンや硫酸ヒドロキシルアミンを添着した吸着剤、特開昭59−186641号には活性炭にポリエチレンイミンを添着した吸着剤、特開昭60−132645号には粘土鉱物にアニリン、トルイジン、メタニル酸(m−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸)、スルファニル酸(p−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸)やベンジルアミン及びその塩を担持した吸着剤、特開平7−136502号には活性炭素繊維にアミノベンゼンスルホン酸を添着した吸着剤が開示されている。
【0007】
しかしながら、従来の吸着剤のうち、アニリン、塩酸ヒドロキシルアミン、硫酸ヒドロキシルアミン、ポリエチレンイミン、トルイジンやベンジルアミンを添着した吸着剤では、これらアミンが空気中の酸素や酸性ガスと反応し易く、これにより低級脂肪族アルデヒドの化学吸着作用の有効性が失われていくため、低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が大きく、長期間の保存や使用に耐えないという問題がある。
【0008】
また、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸を添着した吸着剤では、酸素や酸性ガスによる低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化こそ他のアミンを添着した吸着剤に比べて小さいものの、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸は水やアルコールなどの溶媒に対して難溶性であるため、極低濃度のアミノベンゼンスルホン酸添着溶液しか調整できず、その結果、シート状活性炭を添着溶液に浸漬したり、シート状活性炭に添着溶液を噴霧などしてもアミノベンゼンスルホン酸の添着量が多い吸着材を得ることは難しい。従って、高い低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能が得られないという問題がある。
【0009】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
そこで本発明の目的は、上記従来技術の有する問題点に鑑みて、低級脂肪族アルデヒドの除去性能が高く、酸素や酸性ガスによる低級脂肪族アルデヒドの除去性能の経時劣化が小さい吸着材及びその製造方法を提供することにある。
【0010】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的は、各請求項記載の発明により達成される。すなわち、本発明に係る吸着材の特徴構成は、シート状活性炭に、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩が添着されていることにある。
【0011】
一般に、シート状活性炭に薬剤を添着した吸着材は、薬剤を水やアルコールなどの適当な溶媒に溶解して添着溶液を調整し、シート状活性炭を添着溶液に浸漬した後乾燥する方法や、シート状活性炭に添着溶液を噴霧した後乾燥する方法により得られる。
【0012】
ところが、前述したように、酸素や酸性ガスによる低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が小さいアミノベンゼンスルホン酸は水に対して難溶性であり、また、アルコール、エーテル、ベンゼンなどに対しても難溶性であり、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸の添着溶液として十分な濃度が得られる適当な溶媒が見当たらず、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のみを溶媒に加えて添着溶液を調整し、前記した方法でシート状活性炭に添着しても、短時間の処理ではアミノベンゼンスルホン酸の添着量が少なく、低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の高い実用的な吸着材は得られない。
【0013】
そこで、本発明者は低級脂肪族アルデヒドとの反応性が高く、酸素や酸性ガスによる低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が小さい薬剤を求めて鋭意検討した結果、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩を見出した。アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩は水溶性であるので、高濃度で溶解した添着溶液を調整することができ、この添着溶液を用いて前述したような浸漬法や噴霧法でシート状活性炭に添着すれば、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の添着量が多い吸着材が得られるのである。
【0014】
その結果、低級脂肪族アルデヒドの除去性能が高く、かつ、低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が小さい吸着材を提供することができる。
【0015】
本発明に係る吸着材の製造方法の特徴構成は、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の水溶液をシート状活性炭に添着して製造することにある。
【0016】
この構成によれば、酸素や酸性ガスによる低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が小さいアミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の添着量を多くでき、これにより低級脂肪族アルデヒドの除去性能が高く、かつ低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が小さい吸着材の製造方法を提供することができる。
【0017】
加える前記アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩は水100重量部に対して2〜50重量部である。
【0018】
アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩が水100重量部に対して2重量部未満であると、低級脂肪族アルデヒドを除去するのに十分な量のアミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩を多孔質体に添着することができず、また、50重量部を越えて含ませても、量の増加に見合った効果が得られない。
【0019】
【本発明の実施の形態】
本発明の実施の形態を以下に詳しく説明する。本実施形態に係る吸着材は、シート状活性炭に、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩が添着されて構成されている。この吸着材は、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の水溶液をシート状活性炭に添着して製造される。
【0020】
シート状活性炭とは、繊維状や微粒状の活性炭をフェルトやペーパーなどのシート状に成形したものであり、例示すると、活性炭素繊維のフェルトや活性炭素繊維や微粒状活性炭を湿式抄紙法でシート化したものや、微粒状活性炭シートを乾式法でシート化したものなどがある。
【0021】
シート状活性炭の目付は30〜1000g/m2、好ましくは50〜500g/m2、より好ましくは100〜200g/m2であり、この範囲未満では、充分な吸着除去量が得られず、この範囲を超えると、シート状活性炭が厚くなってプリーツ加工などの加工がし難くなる。
【0022】
シート状活性炭に含有される活性炭含有率は、30〜100重量%、好ましくは40〜90重量%、より好ましくは50〜70重量%である。この範囲未満では吸着除去性能が低く、この範囲を超えるとシートの強度が弱くなり、プリーツなどの加工性が劣る。
【0023】
シート状活性炭に含有される活性炭の比表面積としては500〜3000m2/g、好ましくは700〜3000m2/g、より好ましくは1000〜3000m2/gであり、比表面積の大きな活性炭を使用した方が、低級脂肪族アルデヒドとの反応に有効な面積を大きくすることができ、高い低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能が得られる。
【0024】
シート状活性炭へのアミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の添着量としては、活性炭1g当たりに0.03〜0.3g、好ましくは0.05〜0.25g、さらに好ましくは0.1〜0.2gである。この範囲未満では、高い低級アルデヒド除去性能が得られず、この範囲を超えて添着してもアルデヒド除去性能は向上しない。
【0025】
アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩は、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸とアンモニアとの反応生成物として得ることができ、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の添着溶液は、あらかじめアミノベンゼンスルホン酸とアンモニアとの反応生成物として得たものを水に溶解したり、アンモニア水にアミノベンゼンスルホン酸を加えたり、水にアミノベンゼンスルホン酸と炭酸アンモニウムや炭酸水素アンモニウムあるいはカルバミド酸アンモニウムなどのアンモニウム塩を加えたりして調整できる。
【0026】
添着溶液中のアミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩は、水100重量部に対して2〜50重量部、好ましくは4〜30重量部、より好ましくは5〜20重量部である。この範囲未満では、シート状活性炭へのアミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の添着量が少なくなって、低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の高い吸着材が得難く、また、この範囲を越えた添着溶液を使用しても、低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能が大きく向上しない。
【0027】
アミノベンゼンスルホン酸にはo−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸、m−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸、p−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸の3つの異性体があり、これらのいずれのアンモニウム塩も使用できるが、p−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩が低級脂肪族アルデヒドとの反応性が強く特に好ましい。
【0028】
本発明の吸着材には、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩以外に、リンゴ酸、クエン酸などの低級脂肪族アルデヒド以外のガス成分と反応する薬剤や抗菌性を持たせるための抗菌剤などの薬剤をさらに添着することができる。しかし、この場合には、アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩の低級脂肪族アルデヒドとの反応性を著しく低下させないように、薬剤や添着法を選択する必要がある。また、本発明の吸着材は、単独で使用するだけでなく、他の除塵濾材などと積層一体化したりして使用することができる。
【0029】
以下に実施例をあげて、本発明をさらに詳しく説明するが、本発明はこれら実施例に限定されるものではない。
【0030】
【実施例】
まず、本実施例で用いた吸着材の試験方法を以下に示す。
【0031】
(1)アルデヒド除去性能
シート状活性炭の吸着材を直径90mmの円板に打ち抜き、濾過面積45.3cm2のフィルターホルダーに装着した。温度25℃、相対湿度50%に調整した30ppmのアセトアルデヒドを含む空気を風量5L/minでフィルターホルダーに供給した。フィルターホルダーの出口のアセトアルデヒド濃度を7分ごとに測定し、除去率(η[−])を次式にアセトアルデヒド入口濃度(Ci[ppm])、アセトアルデヒド出口濃度(Co[ppm])を代入して算出した。なお、アセトアルデヒド濃度はFID付きガスクロマトグラフで測定した。
【0032】
【数1】
【0033】
この除去率が10%に低下するまで試験を継続し、この試験中に7分毎に測定したフィルターホルダー出口のアセトアルデヒド濃度から算出した除去率と、フィルターホルダーの入口のアセトアルデヒド濃度および風量から7分毎のアセトアルデヒド吸着量を求め、それらを積算して濾過面積で除して、吸着容量とした。この吸着容量により、吸着材のアルデヒド除去性能を評価した。
【0034】
(2)劣化処理後のアルデヒド除去性能
シート状活性炭吸着材のアルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化をみるため、劣化処理による加速試験を行った。ここで、劣化処理とはシート状活性炭吸着材を80℃の雰囲気下で150時間放置することであり、この劣化処理は、20℃の雰囲気下で約1年の保管期間に相当する。劣化処理を行ったシート状活性炭吸着材について、(1)のアルデヒド除去性能試験を行い、吸着容量を求めてアルデヒド除去性能を評価した。

【0050】
【表1】
【0051】
p−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸をシート状活性炭に添着した比較例1〜3および7〜9は、劣化処理によるアルデヒド除去性能の低下は小さいが、p−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸が水難溶性であるため、添着液へのp−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸の添加量を増やしても高い溶解濃度の添着液にならず添着量が増えないため、アルデヒド除去性能が低い。また、2−アミノエタノール、モルホリンを活性炭に添着した比較例4,5は、劣化処理前のアルデヒド除去性能は高いが、劣化処理後のアルデヒド除去性能の低下が大きい。
【0052】
これらに対して、p−アミノベンゼンスルホン酸のアンモニウム塩を添着した実施例1〜6は、高いアルデヒド除去性能を持つとともに、劣化処理によるアルデヒド除去性能の低下も小さいことがわかる。
【0053】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、本発明によれば、低級脂肪族アルデヒドの除去性能が高く、かつ低級脂肪族アルデヒド除去性能の経時劣化が小さいシート状活性炭の吸着材およびその製造方法を提供することができる。[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to an adsorbent that removes gaseous pollutants in the air, and more particularly to an adsorbent that has high removal performance for lower aliphatic aldehydes such as acetaldehyde.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Various gaseous pollutants such as bad odors and harmful gases are generated in living spaces such as indoors and cars. With the improvement of the living environment, these gaseous pollutants are removed to maintain a comfortable living environment. Of particular interest is the use of air cleaning filters.
[0003]
Sheet activated carbon is felt or paper containing activated carbon. For example, activated carbon fiber felt or activated carbon fiber or fine activated carbon is formed into a sheet by a wet papermaking method, or a fine activated carbon sheet is dried by a dry method. Some of them are made into sheets, and these are pleated and used as air purification filters to remove gaseous pollutants.
[0004]
Examples of main gaseous pollutants generated in living spaces include basic gases typified by ammonia, acidic gases typified by acetic acid, and lower aliphatic aldehydes such as acetaldehyde. Of these, basic gases such as ammonia are applied by neutralization reaction with mineral acid or organic acid added to the sheet-like activated carbon, and acetic acid and many other organic gaseous pollutants are obtained by physical adsorption on the sheet-like activated carbon. Although removed, lower aliphatic aldehydes such as acetaldehyde are more difficult to remove than other gaseous pollutants.
[0005]
In order to solve this problem, studies have been made on an adsorbent having improved lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance. Lower aliphatic aldehydes are known to undergo nucleophilic addition reactions upon attack by nucleophilic reagents such as ammonia derivatives, and it can be assumed that amines are effective for chemisorption of lower aliphatic aldehydes. And various adsorbents in which an amine salt is attached to a porous body have been proposed.
[0006]
JP-A 56-53744 discloses an adsorbent obtained by adding aniline to activated carbon, JP-A 56-53744 discloses an adsorbent obtained by adding hydroxylamine hydrochloride or hydroxylamine to activated carbon, and JP-A 59-186642. Is an adsorbent in which activated carbon is impregnated with polyethyleneimine. JP-A-60-132645 discloses clay minerals such as aniline, toluidine, metanilic acid (m-aminobenzenesulfonic acid), sulfanilic acid (p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid) and benzyl. An adsorbent carrying an amine and a salt thereof, and JP-A-7-136502 discloses an adsorbent in which aminobenzenesulfonic acid is impregnated with activated carbon fiber.
[0007]
However, among the conventional adsorbents, those adsorbed with aniline, hydroxylamine hydrochloride, hydroxylamine sulfate, polyethyleneimine, toluidine, and benzylamine tend to react with oxygen and acid gases in the air. Since the effectiveness of the chemical adsorption action of the lower aliphatic aldehyde is lost, there is a problem that the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance is greatly deteriorated with time and cannot be stored or used for a long time.
[0008]
Moreover, in the adsorbent adsorbed with aminobenzenesulfonic acid, although the deterioration with time of the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance by oxygen or acid gas is smaller than the adsorbent adsorbed with other amines, aminobenzenesulfonic acid is water or alcohol. Because it is sparingly soluble in such solvents, it is possible to adjust only an aminobenzene sulfonic acid additive solution with a very low concentration. As a result, the sheet-like activated carbon is immersed in the additive solution, or the additive solution is sprayed on the sheet-like activated carbon. Even so, it is difficult to obtain an adsorbent with a large amount of aminobenzenesulfonic acid. Therefore, there is a problem that high lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance cannot be obtained.
[0009]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Therefore, in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, the object of the present invention is an adsorbent having a high lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance and a low degradation with time of the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance by oxygen or acid gas, and its production It is to provide a method.
[0010]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The above object can be achieved by the inventions described in the claims. That is, the characteristic configuration of the adsorbent according to the present invention is that an ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid is attached to the sheet-like activated carbon.
[0011]
In general, an adsorbent in which a drug is attached to sheet-like activated carbon is prepared by dissolving the drug in an appropriate solvent such as water or alcohol to prepare an adhesion solution, immersing the sheet-like activated carbon in the adhesion solution, and drying the sheet. It can be obtained by spraying the impregnating solution on the activated carbon and then drying it.
[0012]
However, as described above, aminobenzene sulfonic acid, which has a low degradation with time of lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance by oxygen or acid gas, is poorly soluble in water and difficult for alcohol, ether, benzene, and the like. There is no suitable solvent that is soluble and sufficient concentration can be obtained as an aminobenzenesulfonic acid addition solution, and only the aminobenzenesulfonic acid is added to the solvent to prepare the attachment solution. Even in a short time treatment, however, the amount of aminobenzenesulfonic acid attached is small, and a practical adsorbent with high lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance cannot be obtained.
[0013]
Therefore, as a result of intensive investigations for an agent having high reactivity with lower aliphatic aldehydes and low degradation with time of lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance by oxygen or acid gas, the present inventor obtained an ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid. I found it. Since the ammonium salt of aminobenzene sulfonic acid is water-soluble, it is possible to prepare an additive solution dissolved at a high concentration, and this additive solution can be attached to sheet-like activated carbon by the dipping method or spray method as described above. For example, an adsorbent with a large amount of aminobenzenesulfonic acid ammonium salt attached can be obtained.
[0014]
As a result, it is possible to provide an adsorbent that has a high lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance and a low degradation with time of the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance.
[0015]
A characteristic configuration of the method for producing an adsorbent according to the present invention is that an aqueous solution of an ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid is attached to a sheet-like activated carbon.
[0016]
According to this configuration, it is possible to increase the amount of aminobenzene sulfonic acid ammonium salt that is less deteriorated over time in the ability to remove lower aliphatic aldehydes by oxygen or acidic gas, thereby reducing the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance. It is possible to provide a method for producing an adsorbent having a small degradation with time of the aliphatic aldehyde removal performance.
[0017]
The ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid added is 2 to 50 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of water.
[0018]
When the ammonium salt of aminobenzene sulfonic acid is less than 2 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of water, a sufficient amount of ammonium salt of aminobenzene sulfonic acid is attached to the porous body to remove the lower aliphatic aldehyde. In addition, even if it exceeds 50 parts by weight, an effect commensurate with the increase in amount cannot be obtained.
[0019]
[Embodiments of the Invention]
Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below. The adsorbent according to the present embodiment is configured by adhering an ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid to a sheet-like activated carbon. This adsorbent is produced by attaching an aqueous solution of an aminobenzenesulfonic acid ammonium salt to a sheet-like activated carbon.
[0020]
The sheet-like activated carbon is obtained by forming fibrous or fine granular activated carbon into a sheet shape such as felt or paper. For example, activated carbon fiber felt, activated carbon fiber or fine granular activated carbon is sheeted by a wet papermaking method. And those obtained by making a granular activated carbon sheet into a sheet by a dry method.
[0021]
The basis weight of the sheet-like activated carbon is 30 to 1000 g / m 2 , preferably 50 to 500 g / m 2 , more preferably 100 to 200 g / m 2 , and if it is less than this range, a sufficient adsorption removal amount cannot be obtained. When the range is exceeded, the sheet-like activated carbon becomes thick and it becomes difficult to perform processing such as pleating.
[0022]
The activated carbon content contained in the sheet-like activated carbon is 30 to 100% by weight, preferably 40 to 90% by weight, and more preferably 50 to 70% by weight. If it is less than this range, the adsorption removal performance is low, and if it exceeds this range, the strength of the sheet becomes weak and the workability of pleats and the like is poor.
[0023]
500~3000m 2 / g as a specific surface area of the activated carbon contained in the sheet-like activated carbon is preferably 700~3000m 2 / g, more preferably 1000~3000m 2 / g, better to use a large activated carbon having a specific surface area of However, the effective area for the reaction with the lower aliphatic aldehyde can be increased, and high lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance can be obtained.
[0024]
The amount of the aminobenzenesulfonic acid ammonium salt attached to the sheet-like activated carbon is 0.03 to 0.3 g, preferably 0.05 to 0.25 g, more preferably 0.1 to 0.2 g, per 1 g of activated carbon. It is. If it is less than this range, a high lower aldehyde removal performance cannot be obtained, and even if it is added beyond this range, the aldehyde removal performance is not improved.
[0025]
Ammonium salt of aminobenzene sulfonic acid can be obtained as a reaction product of aminobenzene sulfonic acid and ammonia, and an ammonium salt of aminobenzene sulfonic acid is added in advance as a reaction product of aminobenzene sulfonic acid and ammonia. Can be prepared by dissolving in water, adding aminobenzenesulfonic acid to aqueous ammonia, or adding ammonium salt such as aminobenzenesulfonic acid and ammonium carbonate, ammonium hydrogen carbonate or ammonium carbamate to water. .
[0026]
The ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid in the impregnating solution is 2 to 50 parts by weight, preferably 4 to 30 parts by weight, more preferably 5 to 20 parts by weight with respect to 100 parts by weight of water. Below this range, the amount of aminobenzenesulfonic acid ammonium salt adhering to the sheet-like activated carbon becomes small, making it difficult to obtain an adsorbent with high performance for removing lower aliphatic aldehydes. However, the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance is not greatly improved.
[0027]
There are three isomers of aminobenzenesulfonic acid, o-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, m-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, and p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, and any of these ammonium salts can be used. Acid ammonium salts are particularly preferred because of their strong reactivity with lower aliphatic aldehydes.
[0028]
In addition to the ammonium salt of aminobenzene sulfonic acid, the adsorbent of the present invention includes agents that react with gas components other than lower aliphatic aldehydes such as malic acid and citric acid, and agents such as antibacterial agents for imparting antibacterial properties. Can be further attached. However, in this case, it is necessary to select a chemical and an attachment method so as not to significantly reduce the reactivity of the ammonium salt of aminobenzenesulfonic acid with the lower aliphatic aldehyde. In addition, the adsorbent of the present invention can be used not only independently but also laminated and integrated with other dust removing filter media.
[0029]
The present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples.
[0030]
【Example】
First, the test method of the adsorbent used in this example is shown below.
[0031]
(1) Aldehyde removal performance An adsorbent of activated carbon in sheet form was punched into a 90 mm diameter disc and mounted on a filter holder with a filtration area of 45.3 cm 2 . Air containing 30 ppm acetaldehyde adjusted to a temperature of 25 ° C. and a relative humidity of 50% was supplied to the filter holder at a flow rate of 5 L / min. Measure the acetaldehyde concentration at the outlet of the filter holder every 7 minutes, and substitute the acetaldehyde inlet concentration (Ci [ppm]) and the acetaldehyde outlet concentration (Co [ppm]) for the removal rate (η [−]) into the following equation: Calculated. The acetaldehyde concentration was measured by a gas chromatograph with FID.
[0032]
[Expression 1]
[0033]
The test was continued until the removal rate dropped to 10%, and the removal rate calculated from the acetaldehyde concentration at the filter holder outlet measured every 7 minutes during the test, and 7 minutes from the acetaldehyde concentration and air volume at the filter holder inlet. The amount of acetaldehyde adsorbed for each was determined, and these were integrated and divided by the filtration area to obtain the adsorption capacity. Based on this adsorption capacity, the aldehyde removal performance of the adsorbent was evaluated.
[0034]
(2) Aldehyde removal performance after deterioration treatment In order to see the deterioration over time of the aldehyde removal performance of the sheet-like activated carbon adsorbent, an accelerated test was conducted by the deterioration treatment. Here, the deterioration treatment is to leave the sheet-like activated carbon adsorbent for 150 hours in an atmosphere at 80 ° C., and this deterioration treatment corresponds to a storage period of about 1 year in an atmosphere at 20 ° C. About the sheet-like activated carbon adsorbent which performed the degradation process, the aldehyde removal performance test of (1) was done, adsorption capacity was calculated | required, and the aldehyde removal performance was evaluated.

[0049]
About the said adsorbent, the aldehyde removal performance before deterioration processing and the aldehyde removal performance after deterioration processing were measured by the method demonstrated previously. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0050]
[Table 1]
[0051]
In Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and 7 to 9 in which p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid is attached to sheet-like activated carbon, the degradation of the aldehyde removal performance due to the deterioration treatment is small, but p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid is poorly water-soluble. Even if the amount of p-aminobenzene sulfonic acid added to the solution is increased, the addition solution does not increase at a high dissolution concentration, and the amount of addition does not increase, so the aldehyde removal performance is low. Moreover, Comparative Examples 4 and 5 in which 2-aminoethanol and morpholine are impregnated with activated carbon have a high aldehyde removal performance before the deterioration treatment, but a large decrease in the aldehyde removal performance after the deterioration treatment.
[0052]
On the other hand, it can be seen that Examples 1 to 6 to which an ammonium salt of p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid is attached have a high aldehyde removal performance and a small decrease in the aldehyde removal performance due to the deterioration treatment.
[0053]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a sheet-like activated carbon adsorbent having a high lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance and a low degradation with time of the lower aliphatic aldehyde removal performance, and a method for producing the same. .
