An article for removing undesired chemical ions or compounds from gas and fluid streams where the article is a porous polymeric matrix with a sorption particle, the sorption particle is capable of removing the undesired chemical ion or compound.

A process for manufacturing particles of water-absorbing material is provided. The process includes providing a powder bed composed of an absorptive powder comprising a water-absorbing polysaccharide onto a surface; releasing an aqueous solution from a solution dispenser so as to contact the powder bed, thereby forming a solution-impregnated humid material; letting the solution-impregnated humid material agglomerate in substantially shear-less conditions to form an agglomerated humid material, the solution-impregnated humid material being supported by the surface; and drying the agglomerated humid material, thereby forming the particles.

A polymeric polysulfide is disclosed. The polymeric polysulfide is formed by reacting a fatty acid composition comprising at least one unsaturated fatty acid or derivative thereof with sulfur, at a weight ratio between 9:1 and 1:9, under inverse vulcanisation conditions to produce a polymeric polysulfide wherein at least 50% of the fatty acids or derivatives thereof in the fatty acid composition are unsaturated.

There is disclosed a leukocyte removal filter material comprising a nonwoven fabric having polybutylene terephthalate fiber. The average fiber diameter of the nonwoven fabric is 0.9 to 1.5 μm, the formation index corresponding to a thickness of 0.3 mm of the nonwoven fabric is 15 to 70, and when the average fiber diameter of the nonwoven fabric is X and the specific surface area of the nonwoven fabric is Y, X and Y satisfy the following relational expression (1):
Y≥−0.65×X+1.75  (1).

The present disclosure relates to hydrocarbon emission control systems. More specifically, the present disclosure relates to substrates coated with hydrocarbon adsorptive coating compositions, air intake systems, and evaporative emission control systems for controlling evaporative emissions of hydrocarbons from motor vehicle engines and fuel systems.

The present invention is a solid lubricant treatment medium, usually but not always in bead form, suitable to be brought into contact with lubricants to remediate and to condition them. A key feature of the medium, typically a polymeric resin, is the presence of relatively very large pores, which are able to capture and remove fine lubricant contaminants and breakdown products (such as small phosphate ester varnish, soot, coke, dissolved metal or other small semi-soluble or insoluble particles), Resins and adsorbents of the prior art have proven unable to remove fine contaminants like phosphate ester varnish that have a deleterious impact on industrial equipment performance and reliability. The mean pore size diameter of the medium is between about 8,000 Å and 100,000 Å and, more preferably, in the range of about 20,000 Å to about

A method of making a composite material for dehydration of gases includes the steps of grinding date palm wood fibers to produce a fiber powder, immersing the fiber powder in an alkali solution, filtering fiber powder from the alkali solution to obtain treated fiber powder, drying the treated fiber powder, mixing the dried treated fiber powder with melted polylactic acid to form a composite material, extruding the composite material, and molding and pressing the extruded composite material. The resultant composite material may then be used to dehydrate gas by contacting the gas with the composite material such that water from the gas is adsorbed onto the surface of the composite material.

This invention relates to a system and method for improving sulfur recovery from a Claus unit. More specifically, this invention provides a sorption based SO.sub.2 selective crosslinked polyionic liquid system and method for treating acid gas streams and minimizing sulfur dioxide emissions therefrom.

The invention concerns removing advanced glycation end products from a bodily fluid by contacting the bodily fluid with a sorbent.

Described herein is a method of using solid particles having a surface functionalized with a terminal cyclocarbonate group to neutralize an odor from ammonia and primary or secondary amines. Also described herein are perfuming compositions and perfuming consumer products that include malodor neutralizers.
