How does Activated Carbon deodorize clothing?
When a material absorbs something, it attaches to it by chemical attraction. The huge surface area of activated carbon gives it countless bonding sites. When certain chemicals pass next to the carbon surface, they attach to the surface and are trapped. Activated carbon is good at trapping other carbon-based impurities (“organic” chemicals), as well as things like chlorine. Once all of the bonding sites are filled, an activated charcoal filter stops working. At that point you must replace the filter. It is used primarily for purifying gases by absorption, solvent recovery, or deodorization and as an antidote to certain poisons. Click here to view FRESHhanger’s clothing deodorizer products.
