Ag, AgCl and AgI compounds have been loaded onto the fibers. The structure of the fibers was measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The Ag content in the fiber was obtained by an Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). The Ag+ content in water after the antibacterial test was measured by an Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) emission spectroscopy. Antibacterial test was carried out against Escherichia coli (E.coli) and Staphylococcus aureus (S.aureus). The results show that Ag-ACF/AC have strong antibacterial activity against E.coli and S.aureus. After dealt with ACF/AC loading Ag, AgCl, AgI, no E.coli and S.aureus alive in solution can be detected. The analysis of Ag content in water after antibacterial test showed that the content of Ag meet the quality requirement of the National Potable Water Standard. It is indicated that ACF/AC-Ag in this experiment would be a safe antibacterial agent .展开更多

Based on the diffusion film theory, the diffusion and the integration model are developed to describe the deposition processes of metal ions from the solution to ACFs in the fluidized beds. The model of heat transfer of this process is established to expound the important role-played in deposition processes by the influence of the reaction heat released at ACFs surface and the non-uniform temperature distribution caused by hydrodynamics.展开更多

The effect of different parameters, including adsorption temperature, concentrations of activation agents, and activation time on the silver adsorption capacities of activated carbon fibers has been investigated. The results show that higher temperature in which the silver complex interacts with ACF, or higher concentration of activation agent, will make higher reduction adsorption capacities of ACFs. More over, ACFs activated with phosphoric acid have higher reduction capacities than those activated with zinc chloride or steam.展开更多

The rates of reaction of the functional fibers with Au3+ in the pure aurum solution and in the aurum-containing wastewater were measured respectively at the different solution flow rates, and compared with the results under the static solution conditions. Experimental results indicated that the reaction rates in fluidization are notably higher than those in the static state and increase with the increase of solution flow rate. It demonstrates that the thickness of the concentration boundary layer is decreased and a uniform temperature field is established in the bed due to increasing of the turbulent extent with the relative fiber/solution velocity.展开更多

The influence of pore filling or chemical treatment on their xenon adsorption properties was studied. The experimental results show that Mb and PNP filling of activated carbon fibers result in the decrease of xenon adsorption capacities of these treated ACFs, which is due to the decrease of their surface area and micro-pore volume. However, the adsorption capacity increases greatly with oxidizing treatment of activated carbon fibers by 7mol/L HNO3.展开更多

Zinc or its compounds were dispersed in them. The antibacterial activities of these activated carbon fibers were determined and compared. The research results showed that these sisal based activated carbon fibers supporting zinc have stronger antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and S. aureus. The antibacterial activity is related to the precursors, the pyrolysis temperature, and the zinc content. In addition, small quantity of silver supported on zinc-containing ACFs will greatly enhance the antibacterial activity of ACFs.展开更多

The effects of activation conditions on chemical structuresOf ACFs, as well as the changes of chemical structures during carbonization and redoxreaction were investigated by NMR technique. At same time, the solid state P31-NMRspectra of ACFs are studied The C13-NMR spectra of ACFs can be divided into sixbands that are assigned to methyl and methylene groups, hydroxyl and ether groups,acetal (or methylenedioxy carbon, graphite-like aromatic carbon structure, phenol,and quinone groups, respectively. Only phosphorous pentoxide exists on ACFs andCFs. Moreover, most of them are stuck over the crystal face but not at the edge ofgraphite-like micro-crystaL The carbonization and activation conditions affect theC13-NMR spectra of ACFs. The experimental results indicate that the redox reactionof ACFs with oxidants greatly consumes C-H group.展开更多

The acidity of solution hasgreatly ifluence over the adeorption amounts of methylene blue, crystal violet andEriochrome blue black R. As PHs of the solutions were adjusted to increase ordecrease from the original acidity of the solution (4. 7. 4. ) and 4. 0 for methylene blue,crystal violet and Eriochrome blue black R. respectively), the amounts of dyesadsorbed on SACFs increased. The adsorption temperature (in the range of 25~50℃)exerts little influence on the adsorption amount of methylene blue, crystal violet andfluorescein. For azo dyes (Eriochrome blue black R and Eriochrome black T), howeverthe absorption amount increases slightly with the elevation of temperature.展开更多
