Allergen-reducing composition, spray agent and surface treating agent containing the composition, allergen-reducing method, and allergen-reduced fiber structure and building core material

Abstract

The invention provides an allergen-reducing composition which can reduce allergens such as dust mites and cedar pollen, and which hardly colors an object from which allergens are to be reduced. Also provided are: a spray agent and surface treating agent using the composition; an allergen-reducing method; and a fiber structure and building core material from which allergens are reduced. The allergen-reducing composition contains one or more compounds (A) selected from a group consisting of zinc salt and copper salt, and one or more compounds (B) selected from rare earth salts. The spray agent and the surface treating agent contain one of the abovementioned allergen-reducing compositions, and water or a water-soluble solvent. The allergen-reducing method processes the allergen-reducing composition in an environment in which allergens are present. The fiber structure is a structure in which the allergen-reducing composition is processed, and the building core material is a material in which the allergen-reducing composition is processed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an allergen-reducing composition for reducing allergens such as mites and pollen, and an allergen-reducing method; Allergen-reducing functional allergen-reducing composition and allergen-reducing method. Background technique [0002] Allergic diseases such as asthma, atopic dermatitis, and allergic rhinitis are diseases that afflict many people, and they tend to increase especially in recent years. These allergic diseases are caused by various allergens present in the environment, and among them, mites living in the house, pet hair, pollen, and mold are known as representative inhalant allergens. In particular, cuticle mites, which are dust mites inhabiting houses, have become a major problem as a source of allergen production. Regarding epidermal mites, fiber products in houses such as straw mats, blankets, bedding, and curtains, or seat fabrics of moving vehicles such as trams and cars outside the house, have also b...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] In order to remove such allergens such as mites and pollen, there is a method of passing air through a filter using an air conditioner or an air purifier, but what can be removed is only the allergen flying in the air, which becomes the air in the filter. As a result of collecting allergen substances in the middle, there is a risk of allergen re-scattering when changing the filter

In addition, masks are used to prevent the inhalation of pollen such as cedars, but the pollen attached to the mask is not allergen disappearing, so there is a risk of absorption by re-scattering

Electric vacuum cleaners are effective as a method of removing allergens, but a large amount of allergens contained in the vacuumed garbage are only stored in the dust bag, and it is considered that the allergens may re-scatter when the dust bag is discarded. dangerous
