Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

Using poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) carbonization at 750° C in fine-particle silica and its mixtures with graphite, we have prepared carbon-loaded porous composites which offer benzene absorption from 0.90 to 1.52 ml/g, compressive strength of 6 MPa, and Brinell hardness of up to 18 MPa. We observed the formation of various nanostructures (spheres, spherical segments, and layered platelets) and sizes (several to hundred nanometers). X-ray photoelectron and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy data indicate the presence of C-C, C =C, CO, COO, and CHF groups on the carbon surface. X-ray emission spectroscopy data show that the silica matrix composite prepared via PVDF carbonization contains small carbon clusters weakly bonded to the matrix. The silica/graphite matrix composite contains multilayer carbon films strongly bonded to the matrix. The OK α spectra of both composites are similar to the spectrum of pure SiO2.
