A filtering and adsorbent sampling and enrichment system comprising a stationary phase consisting of a felt of activated carbon fibres with a micro-meso porous conformation and specific surface area of about 1500 m2/g and sampling and/or enrichment standards, confined within a closed casing, is described, as well as the method for obtaining it and the relative process for the analysis of organic and inorganic analytes that uses said system.

The invention relates to strong hydrogen-bond acidic sorbents. The sorbents may be provided in a form that limits or eliminates intramolecular bonding of the hydrogen-bond acidic site between neighboring sorbent molecules, for example, by providing steric groups adjacent to the hydrogen-bond acidic site. The hydrogen bond site may be a phenolic structure based on a bisphenol architecture. The sorbents of the invention may be used in methods for trapping or detecting hazardous chemicals or explosives.

Provided are certain activated carbonaceous materials which have been treated with dilute mineral acids to modify their surface chemistry and morphology. The modified activated carbonaceous materials of the disclosure are useful in removing certain contaminants from gaseous streams. In one embodiment, the contaminants are compounds containing silicon and oxygen moieties, such as alkyl silanols and alkyl siloxanes. The modified activated carbonaceous materials can be incorporated into filters and filter systems.
