This study is to seek the optimat conditions for th production of the Activated Carbon Cloth (ACC), whose production rate of the activated process is used as variables. The production process is to use the regenerated cellulose fiber fabric, such as Plynosic, Modal and Regular Rayon, as the rawmaterials and having passed the mixrure reagent process of the Ammonium Sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) and Ammonium Phosphate Dibasic ((NH4)2HPO4) (mixture ratio:85/15, concentration:40wt.%). The process is completed within the self-designed continuous semi-open high temoperature activation equipment and used carbon-dioxide (CO2) as the activatorgas.
The results revealed that by decreasing the production rate of the activated process, the adsorption properties of the product were significantly increased. However, the tensile strength was decreased. In addition, the optimal production rate index of the activated process shall be 4.75. Under such condition, the high performance Activated Carbon Cloth of 1700m2/g BET specific surface area, 4.2kg/25.4mm tensile strength was produced. As for as the adsorption test, the liquid phase and gas phase adsorption properties tended to be better in the increase of the BET specific surface area. Nevertheless. by the observation analysis of the Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) and the micro-structure investigation of the Activated carbon Cloth. we can confirmaed the existence of its micrographitic crystallites. From the micro-structure analysis of the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), "Pore" was caused due to the different compound degree of the micro-particles, with three dimensional netwrk structure.
