ACTIVATED CHARCOAL VS. ACTIVATED ORGANIC BAMBOO CHARCOAL

Activated charcoal

WHAT IS ACTIVATED CHARCOAL?

Activated Charcoal is often believed to be derived from the carcinogenic briquettes used in barbecue grills; however, on the other hand, it is a worn out of natural resources that are rich in carbon, namely peat, wood, sawdust, and coconut shells, and it thus indicates beneficial and restorative properties.

For preparing Activated Organic Bamboo Charcoal ,the specific natural resource material is heated at high temperatures and then gradually burned by a process called Pyrolysis. Then it is treated with oxygen. This procedure “activates” the charcoal by eliminating any molecules that it had already absorbed, thereby strengthening both the absorption and the adsorption abilities of the resultant Activated Charcoal. The end product is a natural, sustainable product that is chemical-free and thus non-toxic.


ACTIVATED CHARCOAL VS. ACTIVATED ORGANIC BAMBOO CHARCOAL

Bamboo Charcoal is obtained from fragments of a bamboo botanical that is possessed after it has grown for five years or more. Bamboo Charcoal undergoes the similar process of Pyrolysis to become “activated.” Bamboo Charcoal can be termed as either Raw Bamboo Charcoal or Bamboo Briquette Charcoal. The Raw Bamboo Charcoal is made of the parts of a bamboo plant (roots, culms, branches) and the Bamboo Briquette Charcoal is formed when the residue of bamboo is condensed into a specific shape before it undergoing the process of carbonization.


  ACTIVATED ORGANIC BAMBOO CHARCOAL POWDER BENEFITS

Bamboo Charcoal is enclosed in numerous minute holes, which make its structure highly porous. Compared with regular charcoal, its surface area is ten times larger. This strengthens its absorption capacity, which in turn increases its rate of absorption. These qualities allow Activated Organic Bamboo Charcoal to effectively function as a detoxifying agent when used as skin care products.

Conventionally, its absorbency made Activated Charcoal suitable for healthcare applications, in which it was applied on wounds and places of infection. Known to be antibacterial and to make an effective detoxitant, it was thus used to help treat patients of bodily toxins. Gradually, it started to be used as cosmetics and personal care products – mostly cleansers, detoxifying masks, deodorants, and whitening products – that we are using till date. Through adsorption, Activated Bamboo Charcoal is known to help attracting impurities, such as bacteria, dirt, dust, and oil, on the skin’s surface so that its removal becomes easier. It can be applied on any suitable areas of skin, including the scalp, to solve problems related to dryness, itchiness, dullness, and excessive oiliness.
