The thermal desorption of benzene has been measured using a thermal analyzer. Pore size distributions of active carbons and carbon blacks have been determined on the basis of thermogravimetric curves using the Kelvin equation. Calculated distributions and total pore volumes have been compared with those derived from adsorption/desorption isotherms of nitrogen and benzene vapour.

The thermal desorption of benzene and methanol was measured using a derivatograph. Pore size distributions of active carbons were determined on the basis of thermogravimetric curves using the Kelvin equation. Total pore volumes and volumes of mesopores were compared with those derived from adsorption isotherms of benzene vapour.

TiO2mesoporous microspheres self-assembled from nanoparticles were synthesized by a surfactant-free solvothermal route. The TiO2precursors were fabricated by tetrabutyl titanate, glacial acetic acid, and urea in the ethanol solution at 140°C for 20 h, and TiO2mesoporous microspheres were obtained by a postcalcination at temperatures of 450°C for promoting TiO2crystallization and the removal of residual organics. The phase structure, morphology, and pore nature were characterized by XRD, SEM, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption measurements. The as-prepared TiO2microspheres are in anatase phase, with 2-3 μm in diameter, and narrow pore distribution range is 3-4 nm. The adjustments of the synthetic parameters lead to the formation of the mesoporous TiO2microspheres with tuned pore size distributions and morphology.
