Diatom mud is a natural substance deposited by diatoms, a aquatic plankton that has been in existence for millions of years. It is rich in a variety of beneficial minerals. The texture is soft and soft. Electron microscopy shows that there are numerous tiny holes on the surface of the particles. The porosity is over 90% and the specific surface area is as high as 65m2/g. It is this outstanding molecular sieve structure that determines its unique function - it has strong physical adsorption performance and ion exchange performance, and it can absorb a large amount of water on a large area of â€‹â€‹the wall, indicating that the adsorption is extremely strong and slow. Continuous release of negative oxygen ions can effectively decompose harmful carcinogens such as formaldehyde, benzene and helium.
