Raman-Scattering Investigation of Carbons Obtained by Heat-Treatment of a Polyfurfuryl Alcohol
Raman scattering was used to study the structural evolution of 4 h pyrolysed polyfurfuryl alcohol (PFA) between 200 and 900 degrees C. Three critical temperatures, i.e. carbonization, nucleation and crystallite growth temperatures, have been detected around 400, 550 and 700 degrees C respectively.
