Description
Litholyme is a new CO2 absorbent that eliminates the common concerns with traditional soda lime based product in that it eliminates the potential for production of compound A, carbon monoxide, and excessive heat. Its patented formula does not contain NaOH or KOH, and features a permanent color change that will not revert over time. Suitable for low flow applications, Litholyme is minimally exothermic, and its patented formula does not interact with sevoflurane or other commonly used inhalation anesthetic agents, even under fully desiccated conditions. Litholyme features a permanent and profound white-to-violet color change that will indicate exhaustion or desiccation, eliminating the possibility for inadvertent use of expended product. Additionally, the deep violet color of exhausted or desiccated product will not fade or revert over time. Litholyme has efficient CO2 absorption properties which allow it to last as much as 30% longer than other premium CO2 absorbents, making it the most cost effective option for premium absorbent. Litholyme is produced as hard D-shaped granules that are optimized for maximum flow with low potential for channeling. This resilient absorbent formulation exceeds USP standards, with minimal dust content and optimal porosity.
