    Abstract: A crosslinked, highly porous body derived from a water-soluble, hydrogel polymer, wherein the porous body is characterized in that it has an open-celled 3-dimensional lattice structure, a density of less than about 1.0 g/cm , a surface area of equal to or greater than about 30 m /g, a compression strength of equal to or less than about 10 % yield at 10 psi, and an average pore diameter of less than about 1000 Angstroms. When the hydrogel polymer used is guar gum, the resulting product is particularly useful for thermal insulation applications.

    Abstract: A filter device and technique are described which rely on absorption rather than adsorption for the removal of gas phase contaminants. A filter media (49) is composed of wicking fibers which are impregnated with any of a variety of liquid phase absorbing systems made from the combination of a carrier liquid and soluble complexing/degrading agent or agents. The wicking fibers may be connected to an external reservoir (37) which can be used to supply fresh absorbing fluid to the filter media giving them a potentially inexhaustible capacity. The filter media may be made from any of a variety of fibers which can rapidly transport a liquid phase by the nature of either their geometry or their chemical composition. Geometries may include multilobal cross-sectional configurations, porous hollow fibers, porous or striated fibers or tightly bundled microfibers, all of which exhibit the property of wicking fluid from an external source.

    Abstract: A unique filtration device (10) which continuously removes several gas phase contaminants from an airstream through the use of partially hollow wicking fibers (20) impregnated with a selected liquid which can capture the gas phase contaminants. The wicking fibers (20) are generally disposed parallel and are formed into a filter element (12) which extends from the airstream to be cleaned into another airstream which can strip and carry away the unwanted gas phase contaminants. The gas phase contaminants are conveyed to the stripping airstream by a concentration factor induced molecular migration. The airstream to be cleaned is directed through a compartment (16) across which the filter element (12) extends so the complete airflow is through filter element (12). Filter element (12) also extends into another compartment (18) through which the stripping airstream flows. The wicking fibers (20) include internal longitudinal cavities (22) each with a relatively small longitudinal extending opening (24). The wicking fibers (20) are filled with the selected contaminant removing liquid through capillary action by which the individual wicking fibers (20) rapidly draw the selected liquid, with which they come into contact, through the internal cavities (22). The absorption liquid remains within the wicking fiber cavities (22) and generally does not enter the space between the wicking fibers, yet through the longitudinal openings (24) the liquid is in full communication with the airstream flowing past the fibers (20).
