Claims
- 1. An ozone decomposing filter consisting of an essentially catalyst free, essentially dipentene free porous body consisting of between about 20 wt % and about 80 wt % carbonized cellulosic fibers and between about 80 wt % and about 20 wt % carbonized gelatin.
- 2. The ozone decomposing filter described in claim 1 wherein said carbonized cellulose fibers comprise carbonized rayon fibers.
- 3. The ozone decomposing filter described in claim 1 wherein said ozone decomposing filter is perforated.
- 4. An ozone decomposing filter comprising an essentially catalyst free, essentially dipentene free porous body comprising carbonized cellulosic fibers, carbonized gelatin, and furnace black pigment, the weight proportions of carbonized cellulosic fibers and carbonized gelatin being between about 4:1 and about 1:4; and the proportion of the weight of furnace black pigment to the sum of the weights of carbonized cellulosic fibers, carbonized gelatin, and furnace black pigment being up to about 1:1.
