In order to produce high-yield pitch-based activated carbon, pitch was synthesized by blending pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO) and coal-tar. Pitch was synthesized by varying the amount of coal-tar from 0~20% compared to PFO and reacting at 380~420 ℃ for 3 h. The synthesized pitch had a softening point between 80 and 260 ℃, and yields ranged from 10 to 40%. At all synthesis temperatures, as the coal-tar blending ratio increased, the yield increased and the softening point decreased. After considering the selected pitches (softening points: 230~260 ℃), pitches containing coal-tar were more volatile at a low boiling point and had a higher residual carbon content. This is a difference in the composition of coal-tar and PFO, and it was con- firmed that coal-tar has a lot of aromatics and PFO has a lot of aliphatics. The selected pitch was heated to 950 ℃ in a tubular reactor and physically activated with steam for 1 hour. Activated carbon containing coal-tar showed higher yield and microporosity compared to only PFO. In this study, the effect of increasing activated carbon yield by blending pitch raw materials was confirmed, and the physical activation characteristics according to the coal-tar mixing ratio were examined.

The coal tar pitch and phenol resins are used as binders in artificial graphite manufacture, but there are differences in the initial carbon compound structure. According to the carbonization temperature, it can be expected that there are differences in thermal decomposition behavior, microstructure, and crystallinity change. These properties of the coal tar pitch and phenol resins were compared to each other. As the carbonization temperature of coal tar pitch and phenol resin increases, crystallinity tends to increase. The coal tar pitch went through the carbonization process through the liquid, and it was confirmed that the crystallinity changed rapidly in the temperature range of 500 and 600 ℃, where the microstructure changed quickly. These results confirmed the close correlation between microstructure and crystallinity.

A method of efficiently purifying high value-added indole among components of coal tar absorption oil was studied using a step-by-step process of extraction-distillation-crystallization. The coal tar absorption oil used in this study contains 1.2% naphthalene, 0.1% quinoline, 0.4% isoquinoline, 6.4% indole, 21.0% 1-methylnaphthalene, 48.8% 2-methylnaphthalene, and 11.7% biphenyl as main components. For the separation and purification of indole, methanol was first used as a solvent to separate indole species in the coal tar absorption oil into an extract phase. And then methanol was recovered by distillation. Subsequently, an extraction solution where methanol was removed was mixed with normal hexane, and then crystallized to recover indole having a purity of 99.3%. Based on the experiments of this study, a purification process scheme for indole in coal tar absorption oil was proposed.

이중층 탄소재료가 콜타르핏치와 메조페이스 핏치, 인조흑연, 천연흑연과 코크스를 사용하여 제조되었다. 콜타르 핏치는 톨루엔이나 경유와 같은 유기용매에 용해되어 코팅재로 사용되었다. 메조페이스 핏치, 인조흑연, 천연흑연 및 코크에 대한 콜타르 핏치의 코팅은 X선 회절분석과 CHN 분석을 통해 확인하였다. 코팅된 탄소재료를 질소분위기의 800-100$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 후 리튬이온 전지의 음극으로 사용하기 위하여 2$600^{\circ}C$에서 열처리하였다. 이중층 탄소재료의 성능평가는 동전형태의 반쪽전지를 통해 수행되었는데, 평가는 음극으로서의 충전과 방전을 통해 수행되었다. 이런 충.방전 능력은 탄소재료의 열처리 온도의 변화나 전구체의 종류에 따라 달리 나타났지만 코팅방법의 차이에 의해서는 큰 차이가 없었다. 열처리를 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 한 경우가 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 한 경우보다 높은 충.방전 능력을 나타내었고, 2$600^{\circ}C$에서 흑연화된 것보다 탄화된 재료들이 높은 충.방전 능력을 나타내었다. 결론적으로, 음극재료의 성능은 결정화도, 조성 및 탄소재료의 미세구조에 따라 달라짐을 알 수 있었다.

페트롤리엄 피치와 콜타르 피치를 열분해하여 제조한 카본을 리튬이차전지용 부극재료로 사용한 반쪽전지를 제작하여 전극의 충방전 용량 및 cycle 특성, 카본의 열처리 온도와 용량과의 관계에 대하여 고찰하였다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 초기 충방전 용량은 콜타르 피치 카본의 경우 현저한 증가를 보였으며 페트롤리엄 피치 카본에서는 지속적인 증가를 보이다가 100$0^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도부터는 다소 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 또한, 충방전 횟수가 증가할수록 충전용량은 감소하지만, 가역특성(reversibility)은 90% 이상으로 향상되었다.

This paper studied the possibility of manufacturing bulk graphite using coal tar, a precursor of coal tar pitch, as a binder and impregnant. Carbonization was conducted after mixing and molding with natural graphite as a filler and coal tar as a binder. Impregnation-recarbonization was performed five times after carbonization. Coal tar used as impregnant. Measuring density, porosity, compressive strength, and anisotropy ratio was conducted. The maximum density of bulk graphite specimen was 1.76 g/㎤ and the minimum porosity was 15.6% which could be controlled by process control. The highest compressive strength was 20.3 MPa. Then the maximum anisotropic ratio of bulk was shown 0.34 through XRD analysis. Therefore, it was confirmed that it was possible to manufacture artificial graphite in a bulk form by using coal tar as a binder and an impregnant.

Purification of indole contained in model coal tar absorption oil was examined by extraction-distillation-crystallization combination. The absorption oil consists of nine components such as four kinds of nitrogen heterocyclic compounds (9.2% quinoline, 2.4% iso-quinoline, 4.7% indole, 2.4% quinaldine), three kinds of bicyclic aromatic compounds (14.2% 1-methylnaphthalene, 31.8% 2-methylnaphthalene, 23.5% dimethylnaphthalene), 5.5% biphenyl and 3.3% phenyl ether. 99.5% indole was recovered by combination of formamide extraction-distillation-solute crystallization using n-hexane. Furthermore, the recovery process of indole contained in coal tar absorption oil was studied by using the experimental results obtained by each operation of this work.
