Hi stephen,

Welcome on Board, Its good to have ' Sorb specialist ' around.

My only question is why molecular produces Diving grade sorb only in rod form and not spherical? Is there any signifcant differences between the two interm of absorbing performance? I do know one thing is that the rod type breath so much better than the spherical sorb, which I have used before like Dragersorb in the past.
When I switch it to sofnolime, I love it ever since due to it ecellent WOB performance.

Thanks in advance

Not to get two techy, our product is D shaped this we feel is the optimium shape for absorbtion as it offers the least resistance for gas to penetrate to the centre of the product hence using all of its capacity. The granules are then of varying size 'with in spec' allowing good movement of air whilst still offering good absorbtion rates.

Hope that is the answer you are looking for.
