Changes in the Surface Chemistry and Adsorptive Properties of Active Carbon Previously Oxidised and Heat-Treated at Various Temperatures. I. Physicochemical Properties of the Modified Carbon Surface
Several active carbon samples with different quantities of surface oxides were obtained by annealing previously oxidised material under vacuum at various temperatures (ranging from 180°C to 900°C). Concentrated HNO 3 was used as the oxidiser. The oxygen content, the pH of the aqueous slurry and the...
