Conclusions
-
1.
The adsorption properties with respect to benzene vapors and the pore structure of carbon adsorbents with almost maximum development of the microporosity were studied.
-
2.
The position of the micropore volume distribution curves whose maxima correspond to a size (halfwidth) of 1.2–1.4 nm and micropore volumes ⩽1.5 cm3/g is a characteristic feature of the adsorbents studied. The difference between ordinary active carbons and the active carbons investigated is only quantitative in the values of the parameters of the Dubinin-Stockley adsorption equation.
-
3.
The adsorption isotherms are described by the adsorption equation from the theory of volume filling of micropores in a wide range of equilibrium relative pressures and temperatures of 293–353 K with totally satisfactory precision.
-
4.
The question of the upper limit of the micropores of carbon adsorbents is discussed.
