摘要
The surface reactivity and functional group content of a series of oxidised active carbons has been assessed by elemental analysis, electrophoretic mobility measurements and potentiometric titrations. Oxidation of carbons with hot air resulted in a greater proportion of relatively weak acidic surface functional groups (i.e., phenolic), whereas nitric acid modification produced a greater amount of carboxylic groups. Electrophoretic mobility measurements suggest that the carbon surface is negatively charged within the range of the pH values studied. pH titration results indicate that the surface acidity of active carbons is stronger than that of a commercial polymeric carboxylic acid ion exchange resin. Possible mechanisms of carbon surface oxidation are discussed. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
