An evaluation method for deodorant property of fiber products using metal-oxide semiconductor sensors

Abstract

There are deodorant textiles with functions to reduce odors in daily life. However it is difficult to evaluate deodorant property accurately because methods for objectively evaluation of deodorant performance have not been standardized. The conventional domestic method for deodorant performance of textile products is a test to detect every single component that consists of the odor. In this work, it reports that we developed a test method to evaluate deodorant property of textile products by using simulated mixing unpleasant odors and the measurement equipment which has metal-oxide semiconductor sensors with different responsive.
