Abstract
To analyze the changes in pH and elemental content ratio of wood charcoal and in FT-IR spectra of their surfaces, wood charcoals carbonized from Pinus koraiensis were used. pHs of wood charcoals carbonized from Pinus koraiensis at 300 and $400^{\circ}C$ were 5-27 and 6.80, respectively, whereas they were between 9.25~10.35 for the wood charcoals manufactured between $500{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ From the changes in the elemental ratios of Pinus koraiensis wood charcoal by increasing carbonization temperature, carbon (C) contents increased by elevating the carbonization temperature with the decreasing in content ratios of O and H. The largest changes in the ratio was found between the carbonization temperature 400 and $500^{\circ}C$. Ratios of C, O, H of the wood charcoal manufactured at 300 and $400^{\circ}C$ were 67.7, 28.9, 3.0% and 72.2, 24.9, 2.5%, respectively, while those at $500{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ were between 83.3~90.5, 13.6~9.0, 2.7~0.3%. The surface functional groups of Pinus koraiensis wood charcoals were determined by comparison of FT-IR spectra of the wood powder and the wood charcoal carbonized with the wood powder. The functional groups on the surface of wood charcoals carbonized at 300 and $400^{\circ}C$ were considered to be acidic groups like Lactone, Lactol, Carboxylic acid, Carboxylic anhydride, whereas Pyrone types could be the major functional groups for the wood charcoals carbonized between 500 and $900^{\circ}C$.
