Abstract

Formaldehyde is one of the main indoor pollutants, and living in an environment with formaldehyde for a long time can cause serious damage to the human body. In this paper, non-woven fabrics and new reduced graphene oxide air filter materials were used to perform static adsorption tests on formaldehyde volatilized from glue. The results show that the new reduced graphene oxide air filter material has good formaldehyde adsorption performance, and the adsorption saturation of this material is as long as 4 hours, which is twice that of F6 non-woven fabric. Within 4 hours, the formaldehyde removal efficiency of the new reduced graphene oxide air filter material and F6 non-woven fabric were 15.4% and 2.9%, respectively, and the formaldehyde adsorption was 0.81·10^-3mg and 4.32·10^-3mg, respectively, and the removal efficiency was improved5.9 times. This paper provides reference and reference value for the adsorption performance of new composite air filter materials on harmful gas pollutants.
