Fiber composite for application of a liquid

Abstract

Provided is a fiber composite for the application of a liquid, including a fibrous member containing a porous carbon material having a specific surface area value by the nitrogen BET method of 10 m 2 /g or more, and a pore volume by the BJH method of 0.2 cm 3 /g or more.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A fiber composite comprising:
 a fibrous member containing a porous carbon material having a specific surface area value as measured by the nitrogen BET method of 10 m2/g or more; and   a pore volume as measured by the BJH method of 0.2 cm3/g or more,   wherein,
 the fiber composite is configured to deliver a liquid via a functional material attached to the porous carbon material including platinum. 
   
     
     
         2 . A fiber composite, comprising:
 a fibrous member containing a porous carbon material having a specific surface area value as measured by the nitrogen BET method of 10 m2/g or more; and   a total pore volume determined by the Non Localized Density Functional Theory of 0.5 cm3/g or more, of which pores have diameters in the range from 1×10-9 m to 5×10-7 m   wherein,
 the fiber composite is configured to deliver a liquid via a functional material attached to the porous carbon material including platinum. 
   
     
     
         3 . A fiber composite, comprising:
 a fibrous member containing a porous carbon material having a specific surface area value as measured by the nitrogen BET method of 10 m2/g or more;   at least one peak in a pore diameter distribution determined by the Non Localized Density Functional Theory in the range from 3 nm to 20 nm; and   a ratio of the total volume of the pores with diameters in the range from 3 nm to 20 nm, being 0.2 or more of the total pore volume,   wherein,
 the fiber composite is configured to deliver a liquid via a functional material attached to the porous carbon material including platinum. 
   
     
     
         4 . The fiber composite for the application of a liquid according to  claim 1 , wherein the porous carbon material is configured to contact the liquid so that oxidative stress substances contained in the liquid are removed. 
     
     
         5 . The fiber composite for the application of a liquid according to  claim 1 , wherein the porous carbon material is configured to contact the liquid so that the oxidation-reduction potential of the liquid is decreased. 
     
     
         6 . The fiber composite for the application of a liquid according to  claim 1 , wherein one of the raw materials in the porous carbon material is a plant-based material containing silicon. 
     
     
         7 . The fiber composite for the application of a liquid according to  claim 6 , wherein the silicon content is 1% by mass or less.
