Tn. Ivanova et al., CORRELATION BETWEEN CRYSTAL TEXTURE AND MICROPOROUS STRUCTURE OF CARBON ADSORBENTS, Russian chemical bulletin, 44(11), 1995, pp. 2064-2067
A correlation of adsorption and X-ray data for a series of both initia
l and modified active carbons (AC) was performed. The AC were modified
by thermal treatment and progressive activation. A linear correlation
between the sizes of crystallites and micropore widths of AC was esta
blished. It was shown that the adsorption of water vapor results in an
increase in the parameter L(a) of crystallites of active carbons.
