Abstract
Since Emmett 1) reported the molecular sieving effect of carbonated saran, various types of molecular sieving carbons have been prepared and used in the chemical industry. Recently, Chang et. al. 2)–5) reported activated charcoal microcapsules having semipermeable membranes such as collodion or nylon and their application in an artificial kidney. The authors report the preparation, properties, molecular sieving characteristics, and some biochemical applications of polymer-encapsulated, activated charcoal microcapsules which have been developed in their laboratories.
