β¦ Synopsis
Hydrogen adsorption studies at 78 K and pressures up to 40 atmosphere were conducted on nine commercial activated carbon samples. The amount of hydrogen adsorbed increased with increasing surface area. Surface modification consisting of controlled high-temperature reduction and oxidation revealed that BET surface area was not affected by these treatments. The surface acidity, however, increased with increasing oxygen treatment. The amount of hydrogen adsorbed also increased as the surface acidity of the activated carbons increased.

Three wood-based commercial activated carbons supplied by Westvaco were studied as adsorbents of hydrogen sulfide. The initial materials were characterized using sorption of nitrogen, Boehm titration, potentiometric titration, water sorption, thermal analysis, and temperature-programmed desorption.
Prolonged storage in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) can give rise to chemical modifications of carbon fibre surfaces. In the case of fibres contaminated before insertion into the UHV chamber, surface contaminants can be desorbed during storage. When uncontaminated carbon fibres are inserted into the chambe
