Abstract:
The konjac glucomannon was used as the experimental material in this paper. The effect of esterified modified konjac glucomannon (KGM) by benzoic acid, acetic acid and gallic acid on SO
2 adsorption and bacteriostasis in air was studied. The conditions such as temperature,pH value and time of esterified modification of konjac KGM to maximize the SO
2 adsorption and bacteriostasis are described. The conditions for esterifying konjac KGM were optimized and the natural,macromolecular,organic air purificant for adsorbing SO
2 and bacteriostasis in air was obtained. It is showed that the conditions for incubation of modifying KGM were temperature 50℃, pH 3.0, time 2 h with benzoic acid. The rate of SO
2 adsorption was 98.7%, the rate of bacteriostasis was 86.3%.
