A porous @C00841@, a @C00974@ which has been subjected to reaction with gases, sometimes with the addition of chemicals, e.g. ZnCl2, before, during or after @C00840@ in order to increase its @A00166@ properties.
Note:
Activated carbons have a large @A00156@, preferably for small molecules, and are used for purification of liquids and gases. By controlling the process of @C00840@ and @A00093@, a variety of active carbons having different @P04762@ can be obtained. Activated carbons are used mainly in granular and powdered forms, but can also be produced in textile form by controlled @C00840@ and @A00093@ of textile fibres. Other terms used in the literature: active carbons, active charcoals.
