Abstract
A new carbon support for catalysts is prepared by depositing pyrolytic carbon on the surface of commercial carbon, followed by steam activat ion, and the main features characterizing the development of the textu re are outlined. It is shown that the particle-size distribution in th e parent commercial carbon exerts a strong influence on the formation of meso- and macropores and on the development of microporosity during activation.
