Advantages of foam metal in the application of photocatalyst network
Due to the special three - dimensional structure of foam metal materials, the photocatalyst network using porous foam nickel as the support has advantages such as a large air - contact area, high photocatalyst loading, low gas - flow resistance, well - developed pores, good adsorption performance, high strength, and easy regeneration. Under light conditions, hydroxyl radicals (OH⁻) and reactive oxygen species (e.g., ·O₂⁻) are generated, which have strong oxidizing properties. When pollutants and bacteria adsorb on the photocatalyst network's surface, a chain degradation reaction occurs, thereby achieving the goal of water purification. Mainly used for purification, decolorization, dechlorination, and deodorization of drinking water, purified water, beverages, and industrial wastewater.

Scope of application: Home air purifiers, hospitals, UV photocatalytic exhaust gas treatment equipment, automotive purification systems, air purification in factory workshops, and manufacturing of large - scale space air purification equipment; It is also used for air purification, sterilization, and increasing the concentration of negative oxygen ions in central air conditioning.

 

Technical features:

This proprietary immobilization technology fixes the photocatalyst on the surface of the foam nickel or iron - nickel substrate. It not only ensures the firmness of the photocatalyst but also maintains its excellent photocatalytic activity.

The photocatalyst network has excellent photocatalytic activity, with a formaldehyde removal index of 15 - 25mg/m²·min.

 

Product Features:
① Air purification: Effectively purifies formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, TVOC (TVOC can be divided into eight categories: alkanes, aromatics, alkenes, halogenated hydrocarbons, esters, aldehydes, ketones, and others).
② Releasing negative oxygen ions: Releasing negative oxygen ions is beneficial to human health.
③ Sterilization and mildew prevention: It has an efficient killing effect against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and mold.
④ Deodorization function: It has a good effect on removing odors such as toilet odor, garbage odor, animal odor, etc.
