SK1 PAC

Filtracarb® SK1 is a granular activated carbon manufactured from specially selected grades of coal by a steam activation process.

The material is manufactured under stringently controlled conditions to produce an extremely porous adsorbent with a highly developed internal surface area.

  • Versatile liquid phase adsorbent
  • Maximised internal pore volume
  • Highly developed internal surface area
  • Supplied to BS EN ISO 9001:2008
