Analysis of Activation Process of Carbon Black Based on Structural Parameters Obtained by XRD Analysis

In the present study, carbon black activated by CO2 gas was examined through XRD analysis, especially with regard to changes in its structural parameters. Based on results, activation process thoroughly analyzed. The controlled isothermally activating inside a reaction tube which flowed. With this approach, degree of varied as desired. At an early stage process, amorphous fraction surface preferentially activated, and later less-developed crystalline (LDCC) region particles started be activated. latter attributable formation pores particles. As proceeded further, more-developed (MDCC) thereby causing grow larger. last La found decreased about 40 Å. This implied that edges graphite crystals had been thus internal coalesce into larger pores. Activated conductive Super-P enhanced pore properties is expected have wide applications.
