Wakkani siliceous shale has 100m2/gsurface area which is quadruple the size of surface and quintuple the capacity of pores than others. Big sized pore works for finest moisture-absorbing/releasing properties.


General diatomite shows round remains.
In contrast to that, Wakkanai siliceous shale has round remains partly, but also has particles in a ball. From that, we understand it was affected by the geology.

It has more minute pores and is acid, heat-resistant material than diatomite since it is changed to be solid rock by the heat.
Furthermore, it has high-purity SiO2 (silicon dioxide) than others, we can use it as it is uncalcined for keeping original function.
