Abstract

Solid odor absorbers including a solid carrier with a nanostructured surface and, incorporated therein, active zinc ricinoleate as an odor absorber are provided.

Claims (13)

1 . A solid odor absorber comprising a solid carrier having a nanostructured surface and, incorporated therein, active zinc ricinoleate as an odor absorber.

2 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the solid carrier comprises a nanoporous material which is able to fix water to a surface thereof.

3 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the solid carrier is a nanoporous metal oxide.

4 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the solid carrier is a nanoporous anodically oxidized metal.

5 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the solid carrier is a nanoporous anodically oxidized metal selected from the group consisting of Cr, Hf, Nb, V, Ta and Zr.

6 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the solid carrier is nanoporous anodically oxidized aluminum or nanostructured titanium dioxide.

7 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising at least one active substance selected from the group consisting of one or more metal salts of an unbranched or branched, unsaturated or unsaturated, mono- or polyhydroxylated fatty acid having at least 16 carbon atoms and/or a resin acid with the exception of alkali metal salts, and any mixtures of these salts with themselves or further active ingredients.

8 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 7 , wherein said metal salts are zinc salts that are used in combinations with zinc salts of abietic acid or with zinc salts of other saturated or unsaturated hydroxylated fatty acids having 16 or more carbon atoms.

9 . The solid order absorber as claimed in claim 8 , wherein said zinc salts are zinc salts of ricinoleic acid

10 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the odor absorber is combined with a solubilizer, an activator or combinations thereof.

11 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said odor absorber is combined with a least one further deodorizing active ingredient.

12 . The solid odor absorber as claimed in claim 11 , wherein said at least one further deodorizing active ingredient is a quaternary ammonium compound or cyclodextrin.

13 . A method for deodorizing odorous or pollutant gases comprising contacting a deodorizing odorous or pollutant gas with a solid odor absorber, said solid odor comprising a solid carrier having a nanostructured surface and, incorporated therein, active zinc ricinoleate.
