The granules must have moisture in them. From what I understand the freezing breaks up the granules which would alter the characteristics of the flow and surface area of the scrubber.

I'm not sure how that would affect its use in a one atmosphere submersible which would not be as sensitive to CO2 buildup.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'>Get <a href="https://aka.ms/ghei36" target="_blank">Outlook for Android</a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#26282A'><br><br><o:p></o:p></span></p><div id=yiv8497826833yqt91676><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#26282A'>On Wed, Feb 14, 2018 at 11:58 AM -0500, "hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles" <<a href="mailto:personal_submersibles@psubs.org" target="_blank">personal_submersibles@psubs.org</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#26282A'>Hi All,<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif";color:#26282A'>I ordered some Soda Sorb and it arrived yesterday.
