Abstract: An atmosphere-cleaning device equipped on vehicle and provides a DOR (Direct Ozone Reduction) system including an on-vehicle component on which a new ozone purifier is supported and a method for manufacturing same. A radiator has a core part including an ozone purifier with a particle of an activated carbon as its core and an ozone purification catalyst layer as its shell formed by powder plating process. Ozone can diffuse into the layer and the carbon in this order. Ozonolysis reaction with the sub-catalyst can be initiated in advance to ozonolysis reaction with the carbon thereby gas contact probability with the carbon can be relatively reduced and oxidation reaction of the carbon caused by active oxygen can be suppressed.

Abstract: The present invention is for providing a synthetic resin composition capable of effectively deodorizing amine malodor causing substances such as trimethyl amine. In a synthetic resin composition comprising an aqueous medium, a surfactant, and a polymer latex and a filler dispersed in the aqueous medium by the surfactant, a transitional metal supported silica gel having at least one selected from the group consisting of a transitional metal and a transitional metal compound supported by a silica gel and an activated carbon were used as the filler. Since the transitional metal or the transitional metal compound has an performs extremely well as a Lewis acid, it forms a complex with a Lewis base having an unpaired electron. That is, a malodor causing substance such as amines and ammonia having a nitrogen atom with an unpaired electron can be adsorbed efficiently.
