Adsorbent and granulated substance

Abstract

An adsorbent and a granulated substance for which reduction in adsorption performance in low humidity environments is suppressed are provided. The adsorbent includes: a porous body mainly composed of silicon dioxide, including a plurality of fine pores, and having a specific surface area of not less than 1 m2/g and not more than 10 m2/g; one of an acid and a base with which inside of the fine pores of the porous body is impregnated to neutralize a target gas to generate a salt; and a hydrophilic fiber held in the porous body.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
