HydrophobU
HydrophobU is a family of highly pure hydrophobic carbonaceous adsorbent materials for fast adsorption and release of analytes. The superior properties of our carbons enhances the measurement and detection levels of trace volatile and semi-volatile organic compounds (VOCs and SVOCs).
HydrophobU is available with highly controlled pore size, particle size, surface chemistry and surface area. It has advantages over competing materials in a wide range of analytical applications, including air sampling & monitoring (indoor, outdoor, workplace, automobile interior, etc.), breath analysis, and the analysis of trace constituents in foods, flavors, cosmetics, tobacco, building materials, pharmaceuticals, and consumer products.
In addition to our standard gas chromatrography products which includes bulk sorbent and packed sorbent tubes, we can prepare customized products optimized for your specific application.

What is thermal desorption? Thermal desorption (TD) is a sample preparation method for gas chromatography (GC) and/or mass spectroscopy (MS) used for analysis of trace levels of organic compounds (analytes). TD is particularly useful for…
The ability to adsorb wide range of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in low concentrations is critical to sampling of hydrocarbons. The plot below compares the performance of our VOCX-HYDRA – a porous carbon adsorbent…

There is growing awareness of monitoring the formaldehyde level in the atmosphere. Formaldehyde is considered as a carcinogen. Sources of formaldehyde includes some manufactured wood products used as building materials, in cabinets, and in furniture…
The need for versatile, rapid, low cost environmental monitoring of high volatility toxic gases for defense and industrial accident protection has increased dramatically in recent years due to growing concerns over terrorism and chemical agents…
Our graphitized carbon black has a moderate surface area (5 to 300 square meters per gram) and is equivalent to Carbotrap® and Carbopack®. This sorbent has proven to be valuable for adsorbing and releasing intermediate…
We provide a wide range of carbon molecular sieves (CMS) that is of high purity and hydrophobic. You can select CMS based on the pore size need you might have.
Purity HydrophobU is a carbonaceous sorbent with a purity of over 99.9%. It has negligible sulfur content, and metal impurities can be reduced to levels below 100 ppm, if desired. The high purity ensures efficient release/desorption of…
