Activated Carbon Fibers
UNITIKA's activated carbon fiber, which we have developed by leveraging our melt-spinning technology, provides an extremely high adsorption speed compared with powdered or granular activated carbon. It adsorbs impurities from liquids and odors from the air. By taking advantage of the features of activated carbon fiber, we help people live comfortably.
Features
- Large specific surface area and huge amount of adsorption
- Superior adsorption speed enables high-speed treatment
- The fibrous material reduces pressure loss
- The filter generates little carbon dust when attached, making it easy to use
Liquid Phase Applications (Water Purification/Surface Treatment Liquid Cleaning)
The advantages of using fibers in activated carbon filters for liquid phase applications are a high flow rate, longer filter life and a more compact filter volume.
Major applications
- Water filters
(removal of chlorine, organic matter, etc.) - Surface treatment liquid cleaning
