In this study, tannin-furanic-based foams enforced with H3BO3 and ZnCl2 are investigated,
as well as their properties such as mechanical strength, specific surface area, and pore size
distribution. From an industrial point of view, the aforementioned properties of these foams play a
key role when used as catalyst, adsorbent, or gas storing materials. Therefore, this study aims to
prove that such enforced tannin-furanic foams are promising materials for these types of applications.
According to the results, materials that are up to five times stronger can be achieved by carbonizing
the foams in comparison to maturing them. With physical activation, it was possible to obtain a
specific surface area as high as 845 m2
/g with a pore volume of up to 0.35 cm3
/g. Chemical
activation, using ZnCl2 as the activating agent, produced a specific surface area and pore volume of
737 m2
/g and 0.31 cm3
/g. However, the pore sizes were mostly microporous, independently of
activation procedure used.

From Norway Spruce Bark to Carbon Foams : Characterization, and Applications
Varila, Toni; Brännström, Hanna; Kilpeläinen, Petri; Hellström, Jarkko; Romar, Henrik; Nurmi, Juha; Lassi, Ulla (Dept. of Wood and Paper Science, College of Natural Resources, North Carolina State University, 2020)Fresh bark from spruce Picea abies was milled and extracted with hot water. The extracts were purified in a number of steps in order to get tannin-extracts pure enough to prepare tannin-based carbon foams. The chemical ... -
