  • Patent number: 5846297
    Abstract: Polyarylene ethers are employed as filter material for removing NO.sub.2 from gases and liquids. In the presence of an oxidizing agent having a redox potential of at least 0.96 V SHE, NO can also be removed. The filter material is used to produce NO.sub.2 -free gases, for example in the medical sector.
