AMORPHOUS ACTIVATED CARBON MATERIALS AND METHODS FOR PRODUCING THE SAME

摘要

A method for producing an amorphous activated carbon material includes heating a carbon precursor to a temperature effective to form a partially -dense amorphous carbon, and activating the partially -dense amorphous carbon to produce an amorphous activated carbon. To facilitate efficient activation of the amorphous carbon , the carbonization is controlled to produce an amorphous carbon material that , prior to activation ,has a density of from 85% to 99% of a maximum density for the amorphous carbon.
