Highly mesoporous carbonaceous material of activated carbon beads for electri…

a b s t r a c t The activated carbon beads (ACB) are prepared by a new preparation method, which is proposed by mixing the coal tar pitch and fumed silica powder at a certain weight ratio and activation by KOH at different weight ratios and different temperatures. The BET surface area, pore volume and average pore size are obtained based on the nitrogen adsorption isotherms at 77K by using …
