Typical sourcing range
These are common or configurable manufacturing ranges, not a batch guarantee. Final acceptance values, methods and tolerances are confirmed in the signed product specification and batch COA.
| Raw material | Wood chips, sawdust or wood charcoal; phosphoric-acid or steam activation by grade |
|---|---|
| Form | Powdered activated carbon |
| Particle size | Common 200 or 325 mesh grades; target screen passing rate is specified by order |
| Iodine value | Typical configurable range: 800-1,050 mg/g |
| Methylene blue | Typical configurable range: 100-200 mg/g |
| Ash | Typical range: 5-18%; higher-quality decolorization grades can target <=10% |
| Moisture | Typically <=5% |
| pH | Typical phosphoric-acid grades: approximately 3-7, depending on washing |
| Bulk or tapped density | Typical reference range: 250-450 g/L; measurement method must be stated |
| Hardness | Not applicable to powdered activated carbon |

Application fit
Custom manufacturing
200/325 mesh, iodine value, methylene blue, pH, caramel decolorization, iron, lower phosphorus or ash and filtration behavior.
Test-method note: PAC particle size can be evaluated by ASTM D5158. Iodine value does not replace application-specific decolorization, filtration-time or methylene-blue testing.
Grade selection
Use the application, equipment and agreed test methods to turn a typical product range into a contract specification.
Contract boundary: The signed specification identifies guaranteed values, methods, sampling and tolerances. Website ranges remain sourcing references.

Bulk purchasing
Stock, final MOQ, production date, guaranteed values, packing cost, freight, payment terms and inspection scope are confirmed for the specific quotation and contract.
Orders below 1 metric ton are reviewed against the grade, available stock, packing and freight cost.
Standard samples are normally free; the buyer usually covers international courier cost. Sample quantity is matched to the product and test method.
25 kg bags, 500 or 1,000 kg FIBC bulk bags, and pallet options by order
Document scope and timing are confirmed with the quotation, specification and shipment stage.
FAQ
No. Particle hardness is not a meaningful acceptance field for powdered carbon. Use particle-size distribution, methylene blue, decolorization, filtration time, density and dispersibility instead.
Both are common sourcing directions. The contract should state the target mesh and minimum passing rate rather than only a nominal mesh name.
The target liquid, dosage and filtration method should be shared first so the sample grade and quantity match the intended bench test.
