The chlorination of carbon blacks at the optimum temperature of 450" results in fixation of chlorine and formation of hydrogen chloride, the amount depending to some extent, upon the hydrogen content. A part of the chlorine appears to be fixed by addition at the unsaturated sites and the rest by sub

✦ Synopsis
Three furnace carbon blacks, a thermal black, and an electrically conductive sample were submitted as received to chlorination, at 45O"C, with a mix of chlorine and carbon tetrachloride vapors. The treated samples were examined using chemical and spectroscopic (XPS) methods. The interpretation of the XPS spectra is facilitated by comparison with spectra of reference materials. XPS detects various types of carbon-chloride bonds formed essentially by addition or hydrogen substitution processes. The amount of fixed chlorine is dependent on the origin of the blacks, and there is no direct relationship between specific surface area and chlorine uptake. It is shown that chlorination is not limited to the external surface, nor is it to a sub-superficial layer. In fact, it proceeds inside the carbon black particles to a depth depending on their origin.
