Preparation and Characterization of Mesocarbon Microbeads by the Co-Polycondensation of High-Temperature Coal Tar Pitch and Coal Pyrolytic Extracts.

Mesocarbon microbeads (MCMBs) are a kind of engineering and functional artificial carbon materials generally prepared by the polymerization of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The physicochemical property of the raw materials plays a key role in the quality of MCMBs. For a detailed analysis of the synergistic effects of the generation of MCMBs, a high-temperature coal tar pitch was used as raw materials, and coal pyrolytic extracts were used as additive to synthesize the MCMBs. The microstructure and morphology of the derived MCMBs were determined by an optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectrum, and laser particle size analyzer. In fact, the addition of the coal pyrolytic extracts can adjust the molecular structure of the blending pitch, and the coal pyrolytic extracts can promote the generation of the MCMBs during the co-polycondensation process. The MCMBs obtained by co-polycondensation method have a good degree of sphericity, lower defects in the surface morphology, and a lower charge transfer resistance (R
