Institute of Physical Organic Chemistry offers consumers fibrous ion-exchange sorbents for air purification from toxic and hazardous impurities of various chemical natures, including in the “clean rooms” of enterprises in modern industries under a manufacturing agreement and is looking for partners interested in a distribution services agreement.

New original methods for synthesizing ion-exchange fibrous sorbents have been developed. Sorbents are produced on the basis of industrially produced chemical fibers using available reagent modifiers.

Sorbents can be successfully used in devices for cleaning gas emissions from industrial and agricultural enterprises, in devices for individual respiratory protection. A particularly important area of ​​application is deep cleaning of process air from enterprises in the electronic, instrument-making, pharmaceutical, and food industries from chemically active microimpurities (ammonia, sulfur dioxide, etc.).

Enterprises-manufacturers and consumers of gas cleaning equipment in the Republic of Belarus, the Russian Federation, and countries of the near and far abroad. In particular, the materials have been successfully used for a number of years by German companies to equip fine air filters in "clean rooms".

Information is posted in  Album of promising developments of the NAS of Belarus organizations for the real sector of the economy (2023), p. 159-160 (in Russian), and also on the Institute's website in the sections "Chemically active fibers for cleaning air and Water enviroments "FIBAN"  and "Air purification".

Unlike granular anion exchangers Dowex (USA), Purolite (UK), Ionex (Japan), Granion (Russian Federation), as well as Russian ion-exchange fibers (VION, etc.), the sorbents are efficient at low levels of relative air humidity (35–40%), high flow rates (240 m/h) and low sorption layer height (6–8 mm).

The range of manufactured and supplied sorbents is constantly upd ated.

The degree of air purification from microconcentrations (~1 μg/m3) of ammonia and sulfur dioxide at 40% humidity reaches 95%.

The sorbents have hygienic certificates. The developed production technologies are environmentally safe.

The sorbents are manufactured on standard chemical equipment; the synthesis of a number of materials occurs in one stage. The resulting materials have a favorable se t of operational properties, allowing them to be processed into various textile forms (non-woven materials, yarn, etc.) taking into account the cleaning tasks to be solved.

Method for producing anion exchange fiber: patent 23166 Republic of Belarus / V. I. Grachek, A. P. Polikarpov, A. A. Shunkevich, Z. I. Akulich, O. I. Isakovich; date published: 10/30/2020.

The Institute is a world leader in the development, production and use of ion-exchange fibrous materials and artificial substrates for plant cultivation. The Institute's work in the field of membranes and membrane technologies is widely known. Membrane materials for ultra- and microfiltration in the form of continuous webs and capillaries, cassette, roll and hollow fiber elements for use in energy, food, pharmaceutical, electronic and other industries have been developed and manufactured.

The Institute's scientists have discovered and studied the reactions of: heterocyclization of azomethines with carbonyl compounds, hydroamination of oxygen-containing compounds, initiated decarboxylation of mercury acylates, construction of an isothiazole cycle from 2-nitropentachlorobutadiene and sulfur. Convenient methods for synthesizing benzoquinolines, amines, pyridines, organomercury compounds, electrochemical methods for obtaining p-complexes of transition metals, methods for synthesizing various functional substituted organohalogen compounds, carboranes and peroxides have been developed.

The catalysts developed at the Institute have been implemented at the largest chemical plants. An antiblock composition preventing cellophane film from sticking together during its production has been implemented on an industry-wide scale. An industrial radiation-chemical technology for obtaining the blood plasma substitutes "Rondeks" and "Neorondex" has been developed.

The Institute's activities are aimed at developing scientific principles and technologies for creating new polymeric materials with special properties (selectively permeable, sorption, ion-exchange, catalytically active) for use in industry, ecology, agriculture, water treatment; development of methods for the synthesis and technologies for obtaining medicinal substances based on amino acids and their derivatives, biologically active substances and compositions for medicine and agriculture, functionally substituted organic and organoelement compounds.

The Institute carries out international scientific and technical cooperation within the framework of direct agreements with scientific institutions of Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Poland, Sweden, China, etc. Much attention is paid to the implementation of contracts for the conduct of research and development work and the manufacture of high-tech commercial products based on its own developments with organizations and firms in Saudi Arabia, Germany, Korea, Russia, and the USA.
