摘要:
An object of the present invention is to provide a method and apparatus for heat-treating carbon fiber, in which impairment of a furnace caused by solidification of a transition metal impurity serving as a catalyst raw material is prevented, and the amount of the metal, such as Fe, Co, or Ni, contained in the carbon fiber is reduced. In the present invention, a vaporized metal impurity is contained in an inert gas that is passed through a furnace, and the gas is discharged from a high-temperature section of the furnace. The impurity contained in the gas discharged from the furnace is cooled to solidify, and then recovered. The resultant gas is recycled as an inert gas in the furnace.

A fine carbon fiber having an outer diameter of about 1 to about 80 nm and an aspect ratio of 10 to 30,000, comprising a hollow center portion and a multi-layer sheath structure of a plurality of carbon layers, the layers forming annual rings, wherein the sheath-forming carbon layers form an incomplete sheath, i.e., the carbon layers are partially broken or disrupted in a longitudinal direction, and the outer diameter of the carbon fiber and/or the diameter of the hollow center portion are not uniform in a longitudinal direction. The carbon fiber is obtained by instantaneously reacting a carrier gas at a high temperature and an organic compound gas kept at a temperature below the decomposition temperature of the transition metal compound and has a conductivity equivalent to that of a conventional vapor phase method and is useful as a filler material in resins, rubbers, paints and the like.
摘要:
A process for the production of hydrogen peroxide solution from seawater as a starting material substantially free of effective chlorine or organic halogen compounds. An electric current is passed through an insoluble anode and an oxygen gas diffusion cathode while keeping the halide ion concentration of anolyte supplied to the anode chamber to a level not greater than 1 g/l. Hydrogen peroxide thus generated dissolves in the catholyte. Anodic oxidation of halide ions is suppressed, to thereby inhibit the production of effective chlorine.
