Notes:
Abstract Wet oxidation of BPL porous carbon by H2O2 and HNO3 changes the pore structure and also increases the concentration of surface oxides. KOH uptake is increased by oxidation and is seen to be dependent on KOH concentration and to a lesser extent on inert electrolyte concentration. Enthalpy of immersion measurements have allowed the estimation of the enthalpy of hydration of the surface oxides and the enthalpy of neutralization of the easily accessible acid oxides.
