A new type of surface-functionalized porous clay heterostructures (SF-PCH) was synthesized via carbonization of the template agents with sulfuric acid. The converted carbons deposited on the porous surface of the SF-PCH samples and changed their surface chemical properties. The composites possessed a maximum carbon content of 5.35%, a large specific surface area of 428 m(2)/g and micropore volume of approximately 0.2 cm(3)/g. The layered and porous structure of SF-PCH was retained after carbonization and calcination when sulfuric acid solution with a mild concentration was used. Analysis by XPS confirmed that the carbonaceous matter in the pore channels was functionalized with various organic groups, including carbonaceous, nitrogenous, and sulfated groups. Both the surface chemical property and structural characteristic of adsorbents have effects on the adsorption properties of SF-PCH for toluene. The SF-PCH samples exhibited a stronger adsorption affinity to toluene compared with untreated PCH in the low pressure region, which is more valuable in the practical applications. These results demonstrate that carbonization of soft-template is a feasible process for the surface modification of PCH, enabling the resulting composites to become promising candidates for application in toluene emission control.
