Activated carbon possesses numerous advantages, including strong adsorption capacity, chemical stability, and wide-ranging raw material sources. It features a well-developed pore structure and an enormous specific surface area, with 1 gram of high-quality activated carbon achieving a specific surface area of 500-1500 square meters. This allows it to fully interact with external substances, demonstrating excellent adsorption capabilities for inorganic/organic compounds, colloidal particles in gases and solutions, as well as odors and pigments 1.
Additionally, activated carbon exhibits resistance to acids, alkalis, and heat, remains insoluble in water and organic solvents, and undergoes minimal chemical reactions under normal conditions 1. These properties ensure stable performance across diverse environments while minimizing risks of secondary pollution and guaranteeing safe, reliable usage.
