Subject: CO2-absorbant
Hi techdiver-list members

Because I am new on this list let my brief introduce myself. I am not a 
certificated techdiver but I would describe myself as an experienced 
diver. My passion is the underwater archaeology (not treasure hunting). 
My last job was an excavation protect on Kashubsy Brzeg (that`s a 
research boat) in the Baltic sea. I am specially interested in TRIMIX and 
rebreather diving. 

My first question is, where can I obtain CO2-absorbants for my rebreather 
in Germany?. Which stuff is the best one (KOH, Ba(OH)2, NaOH, Ca(OH)2 
....). From what is the absorbent "SOFNOLIME" from O.C. Lugo CO. Inc., 
composed of? Please don`t tell me something about the stoechiometric 
ratios of CO2 that could be bound by the absorbants. Please inform me 
about the performance and how user-friendy the stuff is. Is there any 
experience about temperature dependencies of CO2 absorbance?
I would be very pleasured if you can give me some hints.

Cheers
