Porosity development in activated carbon from palm kernel and coconut shell by chemical activation method by Rahman, Md. Mokhlesur, Adil, Mohammad, Yusof, Alias Mohd

“…Both precursors showed similar N2 adsorption isotherms, an upward deviation at high relative pressure, revealing the presence of mesorpores when carbonized at 5000 C with H3PO4. The bigger hysteresis loop indicates higher mesoporosity in coconut shell derived carbon whereas palm kernel shell derived carbon showed a higher macroporosity nature Prolong sinking of the precursor in H3PO4 impregnation solution followed by carbonization at moderate temperature (450-500 0C) produces carbon of high surface area with a higher macroporosity. …”
