A review on surface modification of activated carbon for carbon dioxide adsorption
TL;DR: The influence of surface modification of activated carbon with gaseous ammonia on adsorption properties toward carbon dioxide (CO2) was reviewed in this paper, where two different methods, heat treatment and ammonia treatment (amination) for producing activated carbon had been compared and amination was found to be suitable modification technique for obtaining efficient CO2 adsorbents.

Thermal Stability and Reducibility of Oxygen-Containing Functional Groups on Multiwalled Carbon Nanotube Surfaces: A Quantitative High-Resolution XPS and TPD/TPR Study
TL;DR: In this article, the thermal stability and reducibility of oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of nitric acid-treated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been studied using temperature-programmed desorption and reduction (TPD and TPR) and high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

Modification of bio-char derived from fast pyrolysis of biomass and its application in removal of tetracycline from aqueous solution.
TL;DR: The results show that the alkali treated bio-char possesses larger surface area than those of raw and acid treated Bio-char, and accordingly exhibits a more excellent adsorption performance than the other two bio-chars and other adsorbents reported previously.

Highly hydroxylated carbon fibres as electrode materials of all-vanadium redox flow battery
TL;DR: A highly effective hydroxylated functionalization of carbon fibres for use as electrodes of allvanadium redox flow battery (VRFB) was developed in this article, where carbon paper made of carbon fiber was hydroxlyated ultrasonically with mixed acids (H2SO4/HNO3, V H 2 SO 4 /V HNO 3 ǫ = 3/1) in a Teflon-lined stainless steel autoclave for different time at 80°C.

Some aspects of the surface chemistry of carbon blacks and other carbons
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the surface chemistry of carbon blacks and other activated carbons is given, focusing on surface oxides with emphasis on the chemical methods used in the assessment and identification of surface functional groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modification of the surface chemistry of activated carbons
TL;DR: In this paper, a deconvolution method is proposed to analyze the TPD spectra, allowing for the quantitative determination of the amount of each functional group on the surface. But the deconvolutions are not suitable for the analysis of a large number of functional groups.

Surface oxides on carbon and their analysis: a critical assessment
TL;DR: The methods for the determination of various types of oxygen surface functions on carbon materials are briefly described, and their relative advantages and problems that may arise are discussed in this paper, where acidimetric titration techniques, IR spectroscopy, XPS, thermal desorption spectroscopic, and electrokinetic measurements are described.
