Nitrogen dioxide is removed from gas streams, e.g. of air or nitrous oxide, by sorption on a polyamide. The polyamide may be polyhexamethylene suberamide or sebacamide, or polycaprolactam, but is preferably polyhexamethylene adipamide; copolymers may also be employed. The polyamide may be used in the form of powder or a sintered porous structure, but most suitably in fibrous form, especially by using two-component polyamide fibres, one component of which possesses potentially adhesive properties so that a bundle of such fibres may be compacted to form a coherent and stable filter body. |
