[Effects of the Invention]

[0008] The filter of the present disclosure can reduce pressure loss when gas passes through it. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0009] [Figure 1] FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing the cross-sectional shape of a substrate used in the examples. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0010] <filter> The filter of the present disclosure comprises a substrate carrying a metal-organic framework. The substrate has one or more through-holes. The filter is subjected to a pretreatment (a) in which the filter is kept in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 80°C and a relative humidity of 3 to 5% for 30 minutes, and then kept in a sealed bag until the temperature reaches 25°C. The filter subjected to the pretreatment (a) is then subjected to a water adsorption treatment (b) in which the filter is kept in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 20°C and a relative humidity of 70% for 600 seconds. The filter is then subjected to a water adsorption treatment (b) in which air at a temperature of 78°C and a relative humidity of 3 to 5% is blown at a wind speed of 45 m / s in the axial direction of the through-holes. 3 When flowing at 1000 kJ / h, the filter of the present disclosure satisfies the following requirements (R1) and (R2).

[0011] Requirement (R1): Obtain graph P, with the horizontal axis representing time (seconds) and the vertical axis representing the cumulative amount of water desorbed (g) per 1 g of filter, and graph Q, with the horizontal axis representing time (seconds) and the vertical axis representing the temperature of the air downstream of the filter (°C). Determine the time t (seconds) at which the temperature of the air downstream of the filter reaches its lowest point T on graph Q, and determine whether the absolute value of the slope of the line connecting point (t, P(t)) on graph P at time t to the origin is 9 x 10 -4 That's all. Requirement (R2): The cumulative amount of water released after 600 seconds is 0.133 g or more per 1 g of filter.

[0012] By passing air at a temperature of 78°C and a relative humidity of 3 to 5% through a filter that has undergone pretreatment (a) and adsorption treatment (b) at the above-mentioned air velocity, the moisture adsorbed by the filter can be desorbed. Requirements (R1) and (R2) both describe the characteristics of the filter when desorbing moisture adsorbed by the filter. In a filter of the present disclosure that satisfies requirements (R1) and (R2), it is believed that the MOFs are supported on the substrate in a dispersed state without agglomeration. Areas where the MOFs are aggregated are prone to adsorbing moisture from the surrounding environment (e.g., a temperature of 10 to 40°C and a relative humidity of 5 to 80% RH, or a temperature of 20 to 35°C and a relative humidity of 20 to 50% RH) and forming water droplets. However, in a filter of the present disclosure that satisfies requirements (R1) and (R2), it is believed that pressure loss can be reduced, possibly because the areas where such water droplets accumulate can be reduced.

[0013] When the filter begins to desorb the moisture it had adsorbed, the temperature of the air downstream of the filter drops, and when desorption is almost complete, the temperature of the air downstream of the filter begins to rise. In other words, the point T in graph Q where the temperature of the air downstream of the filter is lowest means the point where most of the moisture adsorbed in adsorption process (b) has been desorbed. Therefore, the absolute value of the slope of the line specified in requirement (R1) (hereinafter referred to as slope k) is 9 x 10 -4 The above means that the filter can quickly desorb the adsorbed water (hereinafter referred to as desorption rate characteristic (1)).

[0014] Furthermore, in requirement (R2), if the cumulative amount of water released after 600 seconds is 0.133 g or more per 1 g of filter, this means that the absolute amount of water that the filter can release is large (hereinafter referred to as release amount characteristic (2)).

[0015] For both the desorption rate characteristic (1) and the desorption amount characteristic (2), the filter of the present disclosure, which has been subjected to the pretreatment (a) and the water adsorption treatment (b), is subjected to air at a temperature of 78°C and a relative humidity of 70% blown in the axial direction of the through-holes at a wind speed of 45 m / s. 3 It is measured by a test flowing at 1 / s.

[0016] Specifically, air (inlet air) at a temperature of 78°C and a relative humidity of 70% is prepared and passed through a filter that has undergone pretreatment (a) and water adsorption treatment (b), while the temperature X (°C) and relative humidity Y (%) of the air downstream of the filter (outlet air) are measured. The saturated water vapor pressure is calculated from the temperature values ​​for the inlet air and outlet air using the following equation (1). The temperature X (°C) and relative humidity Y (%) of the air downstream of the filter can be measured at a position 0 to 30 cm downstream along the axis of the through-holes from the downstream surface of the filter.

[0017]

number

[0018] In the above formula, T is the air temperature (℃), and e ω is the saturated water vapor pressure (g / m 2 )

[0019] Next, the relative humidity (%) and the saturated water vapor pressure (g / m 2 ) the absolute amount of moisture (g / kg) contained in 1 kg of air can be calculated based on the following formula (2): Relative humidity (%) = 100 × water vapor pressure of air (g / m 2 ) / {Saturated water vapor pressure (g / m 2 )}···(2)

[0020] The absolute amount of moisture contained in 1 kg of air is calculated for both the inlet air and the outlet air, and the absolute amount of moisture in 1 kg of air on the outlet side is subtracted from the absolute amount of moisture in 1 kg of air on the inlet side (a negative value) to calculate the absolute value (g / kg). Because the temperature and humidity on the outlet side change, measurements are taken over time, and the absolute value of the difference between the absolute amount of moisture in 1 kg of air on the inlet side and the absolute amount of moisture in 1 kg of air on the outlet side is integrated, and multiplied by the total amount of air (kg) that passed through the filter to estimate the amount of moisture desorbed from the filter.

[0021] The upper limit of the absolute value of the slope k is, for example, 1.5 × 10 -3 or less, preferably 1.0 × 10 -3 or less, more preferably 9.5 × 10 -4 The absolute value of the slope k is 9×10 -4 ~1.5×10 -3 Preferably, it is 9 x 10 -4 ~1.0×10 -3 is more preferable, and 9×10 -4 ~9.5×10 -4 is more preferred.

[0051] [Measurement of BET specific surface area of ​​MOF] Since the adsorption area of ​​nitrogen molecules is known in advance, the amount of gas molecules adsorbed only on the sample surface was measured, and the surface area of ​​the MOF sample was measured using the BET adsorption isotherm. Sample preparation: To remove water from the sample, the sample was heated under reduced pressure at 10 Pa or less and 200°C overnight. Equipment: Microtrac BEL Co., Ltd. BELSORP-mini Pretreatment conditions: (ai) Place a volume-reducing glass rod (for standard sample tubes) in the standard sample tube and plug it with a quick seal. Prepare this sample tube set with the samples to be measured (up to three samples per measurement), connect it to the pretreatment device (BELPREP VACII), evacuate the air from inside the sample tube, and then introduce N2 gas (purity 99.999% or higher) up to atmospheric pressure. (a-ii) Then, remove the sample tube from the pretreatment machine and measure its weight three times using a precision balance (displaying four or more decimal places) to obtain the average (W1). When using a precision balance, use an ionizer to eliminate the effects of static electricity. (a-iii) Weigh out approximately 50 mg of the sample to be measured onto a piece of medicine paper, and use a long-footed funnel to place the sample directly into the spherical part at the bottom of the standard sample tube. (a-iv) Return the glass rod to the sample tube, plug it with a quick seal, and then measure the total weight once to provisionally confirm the amount of sample added. (av) The sample tube containing the sample is connected to the pretreatment device, and the inside of the sample tube is evacuated. (a-vi) After the pressure inside the sample tube has reached a sufficiently low level, heating begins (vacuuming continues). Measurement conditions: (bi) After the pretreatment (vacuum heating) is completed, the sample tube is cooled while being kept under reduced pressure, and after it has returned to room temperature, N2 gas is introduced up to atmospheric pressure and the tube is removed from the apparatus. (b-ii) After pretreatment, measure the weight of the sample tube containing the sample three times using a precision balance and obtain the average (W2). Calculate W2 - W1 to obtain the weight of the sample. (b-iii) Enter the sample weight and information on N2 gas at liquid nitrogen temperature (such as the second virial coefficient) into the measurement software, enter the relative pressure you want to measure, and press the measurement start button. Then, follow the instructions in the software to install a Dewar vessel filled with liquid nitrogen and a sample tube, and perform the measurement.

[0052] [MOF loading (g / m 2 ) Measurement The weight of the filter substrate before supporting the MOF and the weight of the filter after supporting the MOF were measured, and the difference in weight was calculated as the surface area (m 2 ) was used to calculate the amount of MOF supported per unit area of ​​the filter.

[0053] [Measurement of desorption characteristics] The filters manufactured in the Examples and Comparative Examples were subjected to a pretreatment (a) in which they were held in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 80°C and a relative humidity of 3 to 5% for 30 minutes, and then held in a sealed bag until the temperature reached 25°C, and the weight was immediately measured. Next, the apparatus was stabilized under conditions of a temperature of 20°C and a relative humidity of 70%, and the filters subjected to the pretreatment (a) were subjected to a water adsorption treatment (b) in which they were held in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 20°C and a relative humidity of 70% for 600 seconds, and the weight was immediately measured, and the filters after the adsorption treatment were placed in an aluminum zip-top bag. Next, the apparatus was stabilized so that air at a temperature of 78°C and a relative humidity of 3 to 5% could be stably supplied, and a wind speed of 45 m / s was blown in the axial direction of the through-holes. 3 The temperature and relative humidity of the air passing through the filter were measured over time. Measurements were continued until there was no change in the temperature or humidity of the outflowing air. The absolute amount of moisture contained in 1 kg of air was calculated using equations (1) and (2) for both the inlet and outlet air. The absolute amount of moisture in 1 kg of air was subtracted from the absolute amount of moisture in 1 kg of outlet air (negative value), and the resulting value was multiplied by the total amount of air (kg) passing through the filter to calculate the amount of moisture desorbed (g). Graph P, with time (seconds) on the horizontal axis and the cumulative amount of moisture desorbed per gram of filter (negative value), and graph Q, with time (seconds) on the horizontal axis and the temperature of the air downstream of the filter (°C), were also obtained. The time t (seconds) at which the temperature of the air downstream of the filter reached its lowest point T on graph Q was determined. The absolute value of the slope of the line connecting point (t, P(t)) on graph P at time t to the origin was calculated, and the absolute value of the cumulative amount of moisture desorbed (per gram of filter) after 600 seconds was also calculated.

[0054] [Pressure loss measurement] A filter manufactured in the same manner as in the Examples and Comparative Examples was attached to a pressure loss measuring device so that no gap was formed between the filter and the pressure loss measuring device in a cross section perpendicular to the axial direction of the through-holes, and the intake fan was operated. The differential pressure of the set nozzle was measured with a differential pressure gauge and converted into air volume. Furthermore, the air volume was converted into a surface air velocity from the ventilation area of ​​the sample, and the resistance value (pressure loss, unit: Pa) at that time was measured. The fan frequency was changed, and the resistance value (pressure loss, unit: Pa) was measured at four air volume points, and the resistance value for each surface air velocity was calculated and plotted to obtain Y = aX b Using the power approximation formula (where X is the surface wind speed (m / s) and Y is the pressure loss (Pa)), the pressure loss was calculated when the surface wind speed was 1.0 m / s and 1.5 m / s. For the pressure loss measurement, a substrate with a cross-sectional area of ​​approximately 53600 mm 2 The filters used were prepared in the same manner as in the following Examples and Comparative Examples, except that the substrate used had approximately 61 layers and a cylindrical outer shape. The environment during the production of the filters used in the pressure loss measurements and before the pressure loss measurements was a temperature of 20 to 35°C and a relative humidity of 20 to 50% RH.

Separately, 3.75 mol of Al2(SO4)3·nH2O (n = 14–18) were mixed with 4,800 mL of ion-exchanged water to prepare solution B. Solution B was added dropwise to solution A over 45 minutes at 25 °C. The resulting mixture was then refluxed at 135 °C for 12 hours to obtain a suspension. This was then pressure-filtered, and the precipitated solid was pressure-filtered and washed three times with 1,500 mL of DMF and three times with 1,500 mL of methanol. The resulting filter cake was dried in a vacuum oven at 50 °C for 3 hours to obtain 865.23 g of the product (MOF1) (yield: 94%). The BET specific surface area of ​​MOF1 was 612 m 2 / g.

[0056] (Preparation Example 1-2: Preparation of Metal-Organic Framework 2) Solution A was prepared by dissolving 3.50 mol of isophthalic acid and 9.94 mol of triethylamine in 8060 mL of water in a 13 L autoclave. Solution B was prepared by mixing 2.54 mol of Al2(SO4)3·nH2O (n = 14–18) with 540 mL of ion-exchanged water to completely dissolve the two. Solution B was added dropwise to solution A at 25 °C over 45 min. The mixture was then refluxed at 100 °C for 12 h to obtain a suspension. This was then pressure filtered, and the precipitated solid was washed twice with 2000 mL of ion-exchanged water and twice with 2000 mL of methanol. The resulting filter cake was dried in a vacuum oven at 100 °C for 6 h to obtain 721.97 g of the product (MOF2) (yield: 97.9%). The BET specific surface area of ​​MOF2 was 660 m 2 / g.
