Abstract: | Conclusions Various carbon structures were observed in the wood charcoal sample: the well known pyrolytic graphite layers, onion-like particles, and diamond structure. It is suggested that wood charcoal carbonized at 700°C is a complex of various carbon structures. The pore structure was observed by electron microscopy, and it is supposed that the microstructure and pores are closely related. Further study of the microstructure during the carbonization process of charcoal is necessary to better understand the characteristic functions of wood charcoal for utilizing it as a source of carbon material.A summary of this study was presented at the 51st annual meeting of the Japan Wood Research Society, Tokyo, April 2001, and the 50th annual meeting of the Society of Materials Science, Osaka, May 2001 |
