CarboCloth® Activated Carbon (Charcoal) Cloth was originally invented by the British Ministry of Defense for inclusion in chemical warfare suits. Today it has been developed for use in many odor control situations including industrial, medical, and domestic applications.
Activated Carbon Cloth has an extremely large surface area (1,000-2,000m2/g), being predominantly microporous. This, combined with the strong electrostatic forces developed within the cloth, enables the cloth to be highly efficient at adsorbing vapors and solvents.
Advantages of Activated Carbon Cloth
• 100% Activated Carbon
• Faster adsorption kinetics
• Higher purity filtration
• Higher Vapor uptake
• More efficient in humid applications.
• Smaller filtration beds
• Structurally self supporting***
• Textile type properties
• Long shelf life - can be hand-washed many times to remove minor soiling
***Must be laminated/quilted with other material for more than passive applications.
