Abstract
Interconnected porous material of poly(glycidyl methacrylate)(PolyGMA) was synthesized for selectively reducing phenol in cigarette smoke.PolyGMA was characterized via Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy(FT-IR),Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and BET specific surface area analyzer.The material was applied in dual filter or spread on cigarette paper for testing its selectivity.The results showed that: 1) the material exhibited epoxy groups and interconnected porous in structure with the specific surface area of 119.5 m2/g and the average pore size of 17.3 nm.2) Adding into dual filter showed better effect than did cigarette paper coating,phenol reduced by 28.3% and the selective reduction rate of phenol reached 23.0% comparing with the control.Meanwhile,the sensory quality of cigarette had no significant difference.This material provided an option for selectively reducing the phenol in cigarette smoke.
