Abstract

An ozone filter for decomposing ozone in the air is disclosed. The ozone filter is composed of a carrier formed by paper made of inorganic fibers having a porosity of 70 to 95%. The carrier is impregnated with a solution of fine powder-like activated manganese dioxide dispersed in water and having a particle size of 0.3 to 50 .mu.m and a specific surface area of not less than 100 m.sup.2 /g in an amount of not less than 40 g/m.sup.2, on a dry white base of activated manganese dioxide, which is allowed to adhere to the carrier, and is then dried. The ozone filter thus produced is more active and has a longer life with a reduced pressure loss than conventional ozone filters.
