Abstract | ||
Abstract A pure activated carbon was prepared from resorcinol – formaldehyde polymer (RF) via aqueous poly condensation of resorcinol (R) with formaldehyde (F) in presence of dil. NaOH as a catalyst followed by subcritical drying and carbonizing at 550oC then activated at different conditions of temperature and time. Iodine and methylene blue were chosen as solutes for their well established value in determination of adsorption capacities of activated carbon as well as other physical properties has been determined and compared with commercial sample from B.D.H company. | ||
