Sofnolime is harder than Sodasorb and hence a bit less dusty.
Sodasorb tends to have slightly larger (or more large) granules than Sofnolime.
Sodasorb supposedly has a bit higher absorbant capacity in the fine mesh
and a bit more in the coarse granules (4-8 mesh).

Since the Dräger has backmounted counterlungs I for one would opt for the larger mesh
to get the best WOB possible, so I would go with Sodasorb 4-8.
