Textural Characteristics of Resorcinol—Formaldehyde Resin and Temperature Behavior of Bound Water Affected by Co-Adsorbed Trifluoroacetic Acid or Pyridine in Weakly Polar Organic M... by Vladimir M. Gun'ko, Vladimir V. Turov, Viktor M. Bogatyrov, Jadwiga Skubiszewska-Zięba, Barbara Charmas

“…Resorcinol–formaldehyde resin (RFR) was synthesized as a porous material characterized by specific surface area of 140 m 2 /g and pore volume of 0.59 cm 3 /g with major proportions of broad mesopores and macropores. The interfacial behavior of water at low (h = 0.05 g of water/gram of dry RFR) and high (h = 2 g/g) hydration degrees depends on temperature and pore size filled by unfrozen water because its freezing-point depression increases in narrower pores. …”

Monte Carlo simulation of ammonia adsorption in nanoporous carbon: Optimal pore sizes for adsorption refrigeration applications by Nasser D. Afify, Martin B. Sweatman

“…It is found that nanoporous carbon with very small pore sizes is not a good adsorbent for thermally efficient adsorption refrigeration systems. However, carbon mesopores can provide higher refrigeration capacities and coefficients of performance together with lower desorption temperatures, thus offering the possibility of relying on low-grade thermal waste heat to drive the refrigeration process.…”

CO2 Capture by Carbon Aerogel–Potassium Carbonate Nanocomposites by Guang Yang, Hongchao Luo, Tomonori Ohba, Hirofumi Kanoh

“…In this study, we focused on the regeneration temperature of carbon aerogel–potassium carbonate (CA–KC) nanocomposites, where KC nanocrystals were formed in the mesopores of the CAs. We observed that the nanopore size of the original CA plays an important role in decreasing the regeneration temperature and in enhancing the CO2 capture capacity. …”
