PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a deodorizing material which has excellent deodorizing performance on odors such as the odor of ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, methyl mercaptan or the like, and improved durability of deodorizing performance, and to provide a method for manufacturing the same.SOLUTION: Dried kenaf is immersed in a cationizing treatment liquid, is washed with water and is dried by heating, then is immersed finally in a liquid solution of a metal phthalocyanine complex, washed with water and is dried by heating. In this manner, the metal phthalocyanine complex as a deodorizing component is adhered to the dried kenaf as a support in an amount of 0.05-2 mass% to the support.COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT【課題】アンモニア、硫化水素、メチルメルカプタン等の臭気に対して優れた消臭性能を発揮するとともに、消臭性能の持続性を格段に向上させた消臭材及びその製造方法を提供する。【解決手段】乾燥ケナフをカチオン化処理液に浸漬して水洗後加熱乾燥し、最後に金属フタロシアニン錯体溶液に浸漬し、水洗後加熱乾燥して、消臭剤成分である金属フタロシアニン錯体を担持体である乾燥ケナフに担持体に対して0.05~2質量%付着させる。【選択図】なし
