Abstract
In our present study, phenolic resins heated at different temperatures from 600 oC to 3000 oC were analysised in terms of phase structure and chemical structure using X-ray diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy equipped with an electron energy loss spectrometer (EELS). It is shown that materials appear to be amorphous with many micro-pores surrounded by crystalline graphite layers; the formation of the pore is due to the gas evolution reaction. Using the intensities of peaks in EELS CK-ionization edge which arise from transition of an atomic 1s electron to the π* and σ* antibonding band-like states, the percentage of sp2-bonded carbon have been analyzed and the results reveal notable differences with heat treatment temperature.
