Description
Activated Carbon Packets, 2 GRAM, 22mm x 62mm, 6000/Pail – 10 Gallon Pail
Activated carbon is an excellent sorbent usually derived from charcoal, thus, it is also called activated charcoal or activated coal. Sometimes the word “active” is substituted for activated.
Activated carbon is a form of carbon processed to have small low-volume pores that increase the surface area available for the adsorption of odors so that just one gram of activated carbon has a surface area in excess of 500 m2. Further chemical treatment can enhance the adsorption properties.
The amount of adsorption is controlled by the material being adsorbed.
