Respirator questions.

Does anyone know exactly what ingredient(s)in a respirator filter cartridge blocks epoxy fumes? Is it activated charcoal? Furthermore, with the potential for life threatening toxins entering the body via epoxy vapours, how do we know for certain that simply donning a little mask will protect you from contamination!!
