Raman scattering, x-ray diffraction, and BET measurements are used to study the effect of heat treatment on the microstructure of activated carbon fibers (ACFs) and to correlate the structural changes with the metal-insulator transition observed in the electronic transport properties of heat-treated ACFs. A sequence of events is identified, starting with desorption, followed by micropore collapse plus the stacking of basic structural units in the c-direction, and ending up with in-plane crystallization. The graphitization process closely resembles that depicted by Oberlin's model, except that the final material at high-temperature heat treatment remains turbostratic. Because the metal-insulator transition was observed to occur at heat-treatment temperature THT ≃ 1200 °C, which is well below the THT value (2000 °C) for in-plane crystallization, we conclude that this electronic transition is not due to in-plane ordering but rather to the collapse of the micropore structure in the ACFs. Raman scattering also provides strong evidence for the presence of local two-dimensional graphene structures, which is the basis for the transport phenomena observed in heat-treated ACFs.

ABSTRACTActivated carbon fibers are a kind of microporous carbon. Using dangling bond spins attached to the peripheries of the micropores, we investigated the microporous structures in relation to the heat-treatment and gas adsorption effects. Functional groups weakly bonded to the graphitic backbone are removed by the heat-treatment at moderate temperatures 200-400°C, resulting in the generation of a variety of dangling bond spins. The heattreatment above 500°C brings about homogenization of the dangling bond spins. For gas adsorption, the introduction of helium gas strongly enhances the spin-lattice relaxation rate for the dangling bond spins. In addition to a remarkably large condensation of helium gas in the microporous region, the enhancement proves the presence of ultra-micropores which can accommodate only the smallest diameter helium atoms.

The influence of chemo-mechanical activation of dispersed carbon fibers in their turbostrate and quasicrystalline structure in terms of modeling frictional contact has been researched. It has been shown that change of parameters the structure of activated carbon fibers depends from the temperature of the final heat treatment and technology of obtaining of fibers and from the time of mechanical impact.
