Abstract

Gaseous formaldehyde adsorption mechanism of diethylenetriamine- and pentaethylenehexamine-intercalated α-zirconium phosphate was demonstrated to be self oxidation-reduction of formaldehyde, that is, Cannizzaro reaction, in the interlayer space as evidenced by XRD and solid-state NMR. This fact suggests that these intercalation compounds can be used as a reaction field of self oxidation-reduction of formaldehyde, and also as adsorbents of formaldehyde, which causes sick-house syndrome.
