C 60 and C 70 are known as carbon atom clusters of C N. C 60 is a crystal made of 60 carbon atoms, and all 60 carbon atoms have the same symmetry, and is known as a spherical truncated icosahedron structure. C 70 is a crystal made of 70 carbon sources and has a rugby ball-like structure. (Reference: Solid State Physics Vol.26, No. 7 (1991),

する。The above embodiment is intended to remove both coarse particles such as dust and fine particles such as odorous components in the air. The coarse particles are naturally collected by the filtering action of the plastic fiber filter. Fine particles such as odorous components are also collected by the plastic fiber filter, but the effect is that when the airflow passes between the plastic fibers at high speed,
The plastic surface is positively charged, and the fine particles are negatively charged, and at this time, the fine particles are attracted to and collected by the plastic fibers by electrostatic force. As described above, both the coarse particles and the fine particles are collected by the plastic fiber filter. At this time, the collection efficiency is low, but the collection amount is secured by the increase in the number of circulations, and the cleaning function is exhibited.

に満足する機能を持たせることができる。Further, when air is passed through the plastic fullerene while irradiating with light, the odorous substance decomposes and oxidizes due to the catalytic action of the fullerene, moves to the stabilizing side, becomes odorless, and improves comfort . It should be noted that although the reaction rate is low for each component, it is possible to provide a function that is sufficiently satisfied as the reaction amount by increasing the number of circulations.

Shown in Before the test, the concentration of suspended dust and the average particle diameter (Dp) were measured, and formaldehyde was measured as an odorous gas. Simultaneously with the start of the test, indoor air was circulated by a blower to ventilate the inside of the apparatus, and the measurement was performed 1 hour later. As shown in FIG. 3, it was confirmed that the average particle size of suspended dust and the amount of suspended dust were reduced, and the amount of formaldehyde was also reduced, as shown in FIG.

して再使用が可能となる。If a large amount of dust or fine particles adheres to the surface of the plastic fiber, the resolution of odorous substances decreases. At this time, if cleaning is performed with a surfactant (cleaning agent), the performance is restored and reuse becomes possible.
