The functions of bamboo charcoal products are as follows
1. Purify the air and remove harmful substances
After bamboo is fired at high temperature, there will be countless nano-scale micropores invisible to the naked eye. One gram of bamboo charcoal, counting the specific surface area of the internal micropores, is equivalent to the size of a football field. Such a large specific surface area shows that bamboo charcoal has a very strong adsorption capacity for harmful gases in the air, and this adsorption is selective, such as formaldehyde, benzene, xylene and other harmful gases. This is the principle that bamboo charcoal can purify the air and remove harmful substances.
2, far infrared, negative ion function
Bamboo charcoal can emit far infrared rays, which can promote blood circulation and is beneficial to human health. Bamboo charcoal can also produce abundant negative ions, and long-term use has significant effects on enhancing cell energy, increasing oxygen content in the body, improving microcirculation system and promoting metabolism.
3. Protection against electromagnetic radiation hazards
Bamboo charcoal fired at high temperature has good electrical conductivity, and bamboo charcoal with compact structure can shield/isolate/reflect electromagnetic waves like metal. In addition, due to the special structure of carbon atoms, eddy current is generated in the electromagnetic field, which turns electromagnetic waves into heat, so bamboo charcoal powder and bamboo charcoal particles can absorb electromagnetic waves. Therefore, bamboo charcoal can greatly reduce the radiation damage to human body caused by electromagnetic waves emitted by computers, televisions and other electrical appliances.
4. Humidity regulation, mildew prevention, insect prevention and antibacterial
Bamboo charcoal can release its own moisture or absorb water molecules in air according to the humidity and temperature of the surrounding environment, which is not only suitable for hot flashes, but also can be used in dry weather to create a suitable humidity for your living environment. It is precisely because of the comprehensive effects of moisture regulation, far infrared and negative ions of bamboo charcoal that bamboo charcoal can effectively inhibit the growth of bacteria, prevent the propagation of mold and prevent termites.
5. Purifying water and being nutritious and delicious
Bamboo charcoal has well-developed pores and can absorb harmful components and bacteria in water. Bamboo absorbs minerals such as calcium, potassium, iron and magnesium in the soil and grows. Once it is burned into bamboo charcoal, the minerals are concentrated about three times and are easily soluble in water. Therefore, putting bamboo charcoal into tap water and cooking can increase the PH value and produce weakly alkaline mineral water containing natural minerals. And can absorb the peculiar smell in water and rice. Make the water more nutritious and delicious, and the rice more fragrant and delicious.
6. Beauty and health care
Bamboo charcoal has adsorption function, which can adsorb oil and excrement on the body surface, and it also has sterilization ability. Therefore, bamboo charcoal has long been widely used as natural charcoal in health food, beauty and cosmetics industries.
Chinese medicine has a history of using bamboo charcoal since ancient times, and it is mainly used for treating bleeding due to intestinal wind, eczema of scrotum and scald (
Daqu of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Outline). Soap and soap made of bamboo charcoal also have the effects of whitening skin, preventing and treating skin diseases.
