General description

NORIT® A SUPRA EUR USP is a medicinal, steam activated carbon of 100% natural origin. Activated carbons are internally porous microcrystalline, non-graphitic forms of carbon. The activated carbons possess large surface area (~1000 m2/g) and pore volumes which make them useful for applications in energy storage devices, catalysis, and for removal of impurities from gases and liquids.
