Can activated carbon be antiseptic?
Activated carbon is also called activated carbon black. It is black, powder or lump, granular, cellular amorphous carbon, and also arranged crystal carbon.
Activated carbon is mainly with adsorption properties, there is no direct anti-corrosion effect.
In addition to activated carbon carbon, also contains two kinds of admixtures: one is the combination of chemical elements, mainly hydrogen and oxygen, these elements are due to incomplete carbonization and the residue in the carbon, or in the process of activation, non carbon and activated carbon surface chemical foreign combination, such as the use of water vapor when activated, the surface of the active carbon is oxidized or water vapor oxidation; another kind of admixture is ash, it is part of the inorganic carbon in ash; activated carbon is easy to cause two pollution.
