Abstract
An adsorbent to an aromatic hydroxy compound, which comprises composite metal oxide solid solution particles of the following formula (1) or hydrotalcite-like composite metal hydroxide particles of the following formula (2), and a method of removing an aromatic hydroxy compound in a solvent by using the adsorbent. (Mgy1M2+y2)1−xAlxO1+0.5x (1) (Mgy1M2+y2)1−zAlz(OH)2+a(An−)b.mH2O (2) Provided according to the present invention is an adsorbent capable of efficiently removing an aromatic hydroxy compound from an aqueous solvent or an organic solvent containing an aromatic hydroxy compound.
Claims5
A method of removing an aromatic hydroxy compound in an aqueous solvent or organic solvent containing an aromatic hydroxy compound, which comprises bringing the solvent containing the aromatic hydroxy compound and an adsorbent into contact with each other to allow the adsorbent to adsorb the aromatic hydroxy compound, the absorbent comprised of hydrotalcite-like composite metal hydroxide particles of formula (2),
- (Mgy1M2+y2)1-zAlz(OH)2+a(An−)b*mH2O (2)
- wherein M2+ is divalent metal ion or ions of Zn2+ and/or Ca2+, An− is an anion having a valence of n, and Y1, Y2, z, a, b and m satisfy the following conditions,
- Y1+Y2=1
- 0<y1≦1
- 0.1<z<0.5
- z=a+nb
- a>0.1z
