POROUS CARBON MATERIAL AND A METHOD OF PRODUCTION THEREOF

摘要

Disclosed is a method for producing a porous carbon material comprising: heating a cured phenolic resin complex lump, including 150 to 450 parts by weight of sodium hydroxide and/or potassium hydroxide per 100 parts by weight of phenolic resin, at a temperature of 420 to 850°C in a non-oxidizing atmosphere to obtain carbonized material; and washing and removing sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide included in the carbonized material. According to the present invention, there can be provided a porous carbon material, including large volumes of subnano-pores having a diameter of in a range of 0.45 to 1.0 nm with a sharp distribution, which is particularly useful as a gaseous adsorbent.
