Surface oxidation of petroleum pitch to improve mesopore ratio and specific surface area of activated carbon

Abstract In this study, surface oxidation of petroleum pitch was performed to enhance the thermal stability, specific surface area, and mesopore ratio of activated carbon. The oxygen uptake of the pitch by surface oxidation has a strong influence on the formation of the specific surface area and por...
