Effect of the modification conditions of the carbon material Sibunit on its texture changes

Abstract

For changing the texture of the mesoporous carbon composite Sibunit, its modification by treatment with furfuryl alcohol and the solutions of furfuryl alcohol in water and benzene followed by the carbonization of a polymer was studied. It was found that the composition of a modifying liquid phase has an effect on the textural characteristics of Sibunit, and the most essential pore-size redistribution occurred with the use of the aqueous solutions of furfuryl alcohol. The conditions under which the micropore structure of the modified Sibunit was maximally developed were determined.
