Zirconium phosphate particles, basic gas deodorant using the same, and production method thereof

Zirconium phosphate particles, wherein, after leaving for 10 minutes from putting 10 mg of zirconium phosphate particles and 3 L of air that contains 1,000 ppm of an ammonia gas into a test bag at normal temperature and normal pressure, an ammonia gas reduction rate (X;

• unit %) represented by Formula (1) below within the test bag that contains the zirconium phosphate particles is 50% or more:
• X={(A0−A1)/A0)}×100 Formula (1):
• wherein, in Formula (1), A0 means an ammonia gas concentration in the test bag that does not contain zirconium phosphate particles, and A1 means an ammonia gas concentration in the test bag that contains the zirconium phosphate particles.

A method of producing a basic gas deodorizing resin composition, the method comprising bringing a resin that comprises zirconium phosphate particles into contact with a basic liquid having a pH of 9 or higher and then bringing the resin into contact with an acidic liquid having a pH of 6 or lower.

A method of producing basic gas deodorizing fibers, the method comprising bringing fibers that include zirconium phosphate particles into contact with a basic liquid having a pH of 9 or higher and then bringing the fibers into contact with an acidic liquid having a pH of 6 or lower.
