Abstract
Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of heterocyclic compounds was examined over commercial pitch-based active carbon fiber (ACF). The ACF treate d with pyridine, pyrrole, and thiophene showed excellent performance i n the gas separation of CO2/CH4. Thermal stability of the aromatic com pounds around 700 degrees C appears an important factor to restrict it s decomposition on the pore wall where the compound is adsorbed and ca rbonized.
