Product Brief Introduction
Activated carbon is a specially treated carbon that heats organic raw materials (nut shells, coal, wood, etc.) in the absence of air to reduce non-carbon components (this process is called carbonization), and then reacts with gas, the surface is covered with air. Erosion, resulting in a microporous structure (this process is called activation). Since the activation process is a microscopic process, that is, the surface erosion of a large number of molecular carbides is point erosion, so the activated carbon surface has numerous tiny pores. Most of the micropore diameters on the surface of activated carbon are between 2 and 50 nm. Even a small amount of activated carbon has a huge surface area. The surface area of each gram of activated carbon is 500 to 1500 m2. Almost all applications of activated carbon are based on this feature of activated carbon.
Activated carbon is divided into coconut shell activated carbon, fruit shell activated carbon, wood activated carbon and coal activated carbon from the raw materials.
Activated carbon is divided into powdered activated carbon, granular activated carbon and shaped activated carbon from the shape of the finished product.
