✦ Synopsis
A natural based graphite and the resulting products of its reaction in oxygen at 600°C (burn-offs up to 91.2%) have been studied by nitrogen adsorption at 77 K. Surface area decreases on gasification to about 50% burn-off but for higher burn-offs the surface area increases and for the samples with 91.2% burn-off the value is close to that of the original graphite. The adsorption isotherms of nitrogen at 77 and 90 K on the 91.2% burn-off sample exhibit a crossing point which corresponds approximately to the V, (B.E.T.) value. The changes in surface homogeneity on gasification have been related to the texture of the original graphite.

It has been known that the inverse oxidation phenomenon exists under certain conditions. This effect shows that after oxidation, the mass loss on the inside sample can be greater than the mass loss on the outside. The significance of this phenomenon for HTGR safety consideration has been evaluated.
The surface areas of four different chars, which were gasified to various levels of conversion, were measured by use of Nz BET method. The variation of surface area, S(X), during gasification was evaluated to be a function of porosity, S(E). The various types of variation of the surface area reporte
