10,000,000cm²/g

That's 4× as fine as a catalyst support, while activated carbon is 1.2× higher. A five-gram spoonful would cover about 19.16 tennis courts.

What it means

How much surface is that?

Particle sizes assume smooth spheres at 2.5 g/cm³. Real porous materials have far more area than their outside size suggests, which is the point of measuring.

The math

How to convert m²/g to cm²/g

To convert square meters per gram to square centimeters per gram, multiply by 10,000.

Example: 1,000 m²/g × 10,000 = 10,000,000 cm²/g.

In the other direction, 1 cm²/g = 0.0001 m²/g.
