1、Designation:D265221Standard Terminology Relating toActivated Carbon1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D2652;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates
2、 the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This terminology covers terms particularly related toactivatedcarbonandencompassesfinishedproducts,applications,and testing procedures.1.2 When any of the definitions in

5、liar to acti-vated carbon are adequately defined so that other standards inwhich such terms are used can be understood and interpretedproperly.2.2 This terminology is useful to those who are not conver-sant with the terms related to activated carbon.However,it isalso a ready reference for those dire
6、ctly associated withactivated carbon to resolve differences and ensure commonal-ity of usage,particularly in the preparation ofASTM standards.2.3 Although this terminology is intended to promote uni-formity in the usage of terms related to activated carbon,it cannever be complete because new terms a
