Abstract
Carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a derivative of cellulose that shares most of its chemical and physical properties while also Possessing solubility in water and most organic solvents, because of these unique properties CMC was used in this research to produce CMC aerogel at different concentrations of CMC (1%, 2%, 3%, 4%), the prepared CMC was then carbonised at different temperatures (300 °C, 400 °C, 500 °C, 600 °C, 700 °C and 800 °C) and for different durations of 1 hour and 2 hours to produce CMC carbon aerogel and to study the effect of different experimental parameters on the weight loss in the carbonised CMC aerogel. At low to mid-range temperatures of carbonisation we can observe a decreasing pattern in mass loss as the concentration is increased and this due to the physical properties of CMC aerogel while at higher temperatures it is observed that higher concentration of CMC yielded a higher weigh loss due to the completion of the carbonisation and decomposition of CMC aerogel. The different experimental parameters had a clear effect on the weight loss of the prepared CMC carbon aerogel.
