The aim of this work was the development of improved adsorptionfiltering materials appropriate for individual or collective protection systems. The work focused on creating and studying novel composite adsorptionfiltering materials (CAFM) based on ‘Carbon Adsorbent [active component] - Polymer [matrix]’ and optimizing the media characteristics. The following different methods for preparing optimized CAFMs were pursued: a) formation of block CAFM (hard structure); b) formation of an elastic CAFM based on polymer foams; c) and formation of an immobilized CAFM (adsorption-active components were immobilized on a polymeric filter material by the extrusion process). The optimized composites can be used as a means of protection for personnel, working in areas polluted by toxic (including radioactive) gases and dusts.
