  • Three microbial consortia were screened for their ability to degrade phenolic resin, resole as a sole carbon source. These microbial consortia were derived from soil samples collected from a phenolic resin manufacturing plant site. Among the consortia, the test consortium, designated as MS2, displayed approximately 70% degradation of the substrate, 100 mg of resole per liter, within the fist twelve days of incubation but the degradation was inhibited. During the incubation period, pH was decreased from 7.0 to 2.7, and the resole degradation became inhibited under the conditions. UV-scans of spent culture showed that the wavelength of maximum absorption was 261 nm for resole.

  • This study investigated the effects of layered clay on the thermal curing behavior and tensile properties of resole phenol-formaldehyde (PF) resin/clay/cellulose nanocomposites. The thermal curing behavior of the nanocomposite was characterized using conventional differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and temperature modulated (TMDSC). The addition of clay was found to accelerate resin curing, as measured by peak temperature ($T_p$) and heat of reaction (${\Delta}H$) of the nanocomposite’ curing reaction increasing clay addition decreased $T_p$ with a minimum at 3~5% clay. However, the reversing heat flow and heat capacity showed that the clay addition up to 3% delayed the vitrification process of the resole PF resin in the nanocomposite, indicating an inhibition effect of the clay on curing in the later stages of the reaction. Three different methods were employed to determineactivation energies for the curing reaction of the nanocomposite. Both the Ozawa and Kissinger methods showed the lowest activation energy (E) at 3% clay content. Using the isoconversional method, the activation energy ($E_{\alpha}$) as a function of the degree of conversion was measured and showed that as the degree of cure increased, the $E_{\alpha}$ showed a gradual decrease, and gave the lowest value at 3% nanoclay. The addition of clay improved the tensile strengths of the nanocomposites, although a slight decrease in the elongation at break was observed as the clay content increased. These results demonstrated that the addition of clay to resole PF resins accelerate the curing behavior of the nanocomposites with an optimum level of 3% clay based on the balance between the cure kinetics and tensile properties.

  • Activated carbon spheres (ACS) were prepared at different heating rates by carbonization of the resole-type phenolic beads (PB) at $950^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ atmosphere followed by activation of the resultant char at different temperatures for 5 h in $CO_2$ atmosphere. Influence of heating rate on porosity and temperature on carbon structure and porosity of ACS were investigated. Effect of heating rate and temperature on porosity of ACS was also studied from adsorption isotherms of nitrogen at 77 K using BET method. The results revealed that ACS have exhibited a BET surface area and pore volume greater than $2260\;m^2/g$ and $1.63\;cm^3/g$ respectively. The structural characteristics variation of ACS with different temperature was studied using Raman spectroscopy. The results exhibited that amount of disorganized carbon affects both the pore structure and adsorption properties of ACS. ACS were also evaluated for structural information using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy. ACS were evaluated for chemical composition using CHNS analysis. The ACS prepared different temperatures became more carbonaceous material compared to carbonized material. ACS have possessed well-developed pores structure which were verified by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). SEM micrographs also exhibited that ACS have possessed well-developed micro- and meso-pores structure and the pore size of ACS increased with increasing activation temperature.

  • PAN-based activated carbon fibers/phenolic resin matrix composites (ACFCs) were manufactured via molding process with oxidized carbon fabrics (plain-type) and phenolic resin (resole-type) compounded by 70 : 30 wt%. The green body (as molded) was submitted to carbonization (at 100$0^{\circ}C$) in an inert environment and activation (at 700, 800, 900 and 100$0^{\circ}C$) in a $CO_2$ environment. In this work, the influence of activation temperatures was investigated in surface properties, such as pH, acid- and base-values by titration method, and in adsorption properties, i.e., specific surface area and pore structures by BET-method of the composites. Also, the pressure drops of the specimens were calibrated by ASTM. As a result, the activation temperature influenced the surface property of ACFCs. When the activation temperature was higher than 90$0^{\circ}C$, the surface was gradually developed in basic nature. And, the evolutions of specific surface area, total pore volume and pore size distribution of ACFCs could be easily confirmed the dependence on the activation temperature. Among them, well-developed pore structure from adsorption characteristics was changed of the ACFCs activated at 90$0^{\circ}C$. Also, the pressure drop was slightly decreased with increasing the temperature due to increasing the burn-off with heat treatment temperature of ACFCs.

  • In this study, the effect of formaldehyde to phenol (F/P) molar ratios, catalyst wt%, and reaction temperature on the chemical structure was studied utilizing a two-level full factorial experimental design. The effect of three variables on the chemical structure was analyzed by using three-way ANOVA of SPSS. Concentration of methyrol-substituted phenols after 300 min addition reaction increased with higher the F/P mole ratio, lower the reaction temperature and lower the catalyst wt%. Resol catalysed by barium hydroxide showed higher addition of formaldehyde onto ortho positions of phenolic rings. A simplified elementary reaction model for resole type phenolic resin formation which do not consider the dissociation of phenolic compounds and the fraction of formaldehyde in the form of methylene glycol was proposed and compared with Zavitsas' type models. Elementary reaction model showed error of 2.79% compared to the error of 3.27% in Zavitsas' type models. It was thought that the elementary reaction model could be used to predict the behavior of addition reaction in resol formation.

  • The effects of reactant composition on the particle size distribution, synthetic yield, and density of Phenol-formaldehyde bead were examined in the synthesis of resol-type phenolic resin. Decrease of the content of DI water as dispersion media can increase the viscosity of suspension, which may cause the difference of particle size distribution and aggregation. The average particle size of synthesized beads was also decreased with the increasing content of stabilizer which can affect the interfacial area. The amount of crosslinking agent showed no effect on the size distribution and synthetic yield, but it made a decrease in the density of synthesized bead due to the macropore in the bead.
