Abstract

Oxidative etching of carbon fibres obeys the principles of polychromatic kinetics of polymer reactions. The differences in the efficiency of activation of carbon fibres based on different raw materials by thermooxidation in air are due to the morphological features of their structure. The possibility of obtaining activated carbon fibres by oxidation of the starting carbon fibres from isotropic pitch with atmospheric oxygen at high temperature was demonstrated.
