Metal catalyst

Ni-Pd catalytic activated carbon

Part No.
ET
Ni-Pd catalytic activated carbon

Freshness-keeping agent for vegetables, plants, flowers, etc.

Ethylene gas decomposition
The activated carbon attracts ethylene gas, which is decomposed by the Ni-Pd catalyst, suppressing ripening of fruits and vegetables and preserving freshness.
Improves the environment
Ethylene gas is decomposed into carbon dioxide and water by the catalyst, and undergoes reduction as a nutrient source for plants.
Long-lasting
The effect of the catalyst lasts for a long time. Ideal for refrigerators that store products because of its superior safety.
