Carbon granules were prepared by granulating a mixture of coconut shell powder and coal tar solution, and then by carbonizing at different temperatures. To control micropores of the carbonized granules, the deposition time of benzene vapor under nitrogen atmosphere was varied. For each prepared sample, SEM morphology and true density were investigated. The adsorption rates on the granules were measured with respect to oxygen and nitrogen by means of the Cahn D-200 system. Diffusivity, selectivity and amount of equilibrium adsorption for the gases were obtained from the measurement of adsorption rate. Based on the analysis of the adsorption characteristics, the optimum temperature and the deposition time for preparation of the molecular sieve carbon granules were found to be 800℃ and 10 minutes, respectively. At these optimal conditions, the selectivity coefficient, 26.4, 0f oxygen and nitrogen was obtained.

탄소제립물은 야자각 분말을 coal tar 용액과 혼합시켜 성형한 후, 이를 여러 가지 온도에서 탄화시켜 제조하였다. 탄소제립물의 미세공 조절을 위하여 질소분위기에서 벤젠 증착시간을 변화시켰다. 여러 가지 시료에 대해서 SEM을 이용하여 얻은 Morphology와 진밀도를 비교하였고 Cahn D-200장치를 이용한 산소 및 질소의 흡착속도를 측정하여 가스의 확산계수, 분리계수 및 흡착평형량을 얻었다. 흡착특성 결과의 분석을 통해 분자체 제조에 적합한 탄화온도와 변형시간은 각각 800℃와 10분이며, 이때 산소와 질소의 분리계수는 26.4임을 알 수 있었다
