The thermal stability is not tested internally, but in inert atmospheres, NORIT® RX3 EXTRA AC can withstand higher temperatures without significant degradation. It can typically maintain its structural integrity up to around 800°C, depending on specific conditions. In reducing environments, the thermal stability may be affected by the presence of reducing agents. While activated carbon can remain stable, prolonged exposure to high temperatures in a reducing atmosphere may lead to a gradual loss of surface area and adsorption capacity. In oxidizing conditions, activated carbon is more susceptible to oxidation. The thermal stability decreases significantly, especially at elevated temperatures. At temperatures above 300°C, the carbon structure can begin to oxidize, leading to a loss of mass and changes in surface properties.
