stable
URI: http://codes.wmo.int/wmdr/ObservedVariableAtmosphere/625
Carbonaceous fraction of particulate matter that is thermally stable in an inert atmosphere to high temperatures near 4000 K and can only be gasified by oxidation starting at temperatures above 340 degC. It is assumed to be inert and non-volatile under atmospheric conditions and insoluble in any solvent. Size range: PM2.5
