The hierarchical pore structure—featuring macro-, meso-, and micropores—enables efficient adsorption of organic molecules, dyes, and contaminants across a wide size range. These beads are supplied in mesh format for ease of handling and separation, making them suitable for batch adsorption studies, column chromatography, and laboratory-scale purification workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto; max-width:100%; margin-bottom:20px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%; max-width:640px; border-collapse:collapse;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCatalog number:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eB2025506\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLot number:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eBatch dependent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExpiration Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eBatch dependent\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAmount:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003e12 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eParticle form:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eSpherical beads\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupplied as:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eMesh\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePore structure:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eHierarchical macro-, meso-, and micropores\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eAdsorption-based separation and purification, dye and organic molecule capture, chromatographic sample preparation, water remediation, batch equilibrium studies, heteroatom doping studies\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStorage:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eRoom temperature, dry conditions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKeywords:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eCarbon adsorbent, porous carbon beads, activated carbon spheres, carbon granules, porous carbon particles, heteroatom-doped carbon, high surface area adsorbent, carbon filtration media\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"border-bottom:1px solid #ddd;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width:150px; padding:6px 10px 6px 0; vertical-align:top;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrade:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:6px 0;\"\u003eBiotechnology grade.
