RC4/8 carbon
In Australia the finest carbon is mined from rare millions of years old deposits, activated 3 times and then sieved to the exact size suitable for air filters. This is RC4/8 carbon. There are many types and sources of activated carbon, but only Phesh Filters has access to this quality and sice RC4/8 carbon.
RC4/8 is a lightweight carbon with a very large surface area: one gram of activated carbon has a surface area of 1030 m2! The surface structure of the RC4/8 carbon makes it ideally suitable for adsobing large organic particles.
