EMASorb – the Carbosorb® replacement

For many years the self-indicating carbon dioxide absorber Carbosorb® has been popular in OEA and EA-IRMS systems. Unfortunately this product is no longer being manufactured and an alternative is required.

Elemental Microanalysis recommends the use of EMASorb. This has the same active ingredient, CO₂ absorption capacity and similar particle size ranges as Carbosorb®. The only difference a user should notice is in the indicator employed in the products – Carbosorb® being red/brown when unused, changing to white when spent, EMASorb changing from black (unused) to white (spent).
