Carbons, prepared by carbonisation of organic compounds, have been examined by X-ray diffraction and gas adsorption. The presence of oxygen in the organic molecule profoundly affects the crystallographic character of the resultant chars. Surface areas of these chars vary appreciably: very large areas may be due to the presence of a highly porous threedimensional cross-linked structure; small areas occur when the material decomposes in the fused state.IT has been suggested (Riley, Quart. Reviews, 1947, I, 59) that amorphous carbons are built up of two types of structure, viz.,(1) a turbostratic, lamellar, graphite-like structure, and (2) a disordered, three-dimensional cross-linked structure. The latter has been described as a three-dimensional repetition of o-tetraphenylene residues. The evidence for this view has been assembled from detailed X-ray examination of a large number of amorphous carbons prepared from a variety of organic substances (Blayden, Gibson, and Riley,“Ultra-Fine Structure of Coals and Cokes,” BCURA, London, 1947, 178; J. Inst. Fael, 1945, War Time Bulletin, 117; Gibson, Holohan, and Riley, J., 1946, 456). The method of examination consists in measuring the half-peak widths of the diffraction bands and calculating from these the dimensions of the average, hypothetical, cylindrical crystallites. It is thus possible to follow the growth of the crystallites with increasing temperature of carbonisation. The average height (c dimension) of the crystallites is calculated from the corrected half-peak width of the 002 diffraction halo by means of Jones’s formula p= l-Oh/L, cos 8; the average diameter (a dimension) is calculated from the half-peak width of the 10 cross-lattice diffraction halo by Warren’s formula
