Air Purifying Paper….

Sunday, February 26th, 2006

The Japanese always come up with the most interesting ideas…I found this on www.greatnewsnetwork.org last night:

Japanese Companies Develop Air-Purifying Paper

Japan for Sustainability, 5 hours, 51 minutes ago
Tokyo - Nippon Paper Industries Co. has partnered with Japanese newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun to developed newsprint coated with photocatalytic titanium oxide. When the paper is exposed to the sun’s ultraviolet rays, it works to eliminate everyday odors such as tobacco smoke, sweat and pet odors. The companies say it is the world’s first application of photocatalytic compounds to newspaper.
