Abstract

The development of polymer composite materials using various environmentally friendly fillers is an area of active research. The main purpose of this work is to study the structure and chemical composition of a carbon-silicon composite (CSC) obtained by carbonization of a mixture of rice husks and a rice stalk in a pyrolysis furnace, without oxygen, at a temperature of 550–600°C, before and after mechanical activation. The chemical composition of CSC was determined by X-ray phase analysis. It has been established that the composite consists of carbon 35.0–60.0 ± 2.0%, silicon dioxide 30.0– 50.0 ± 2.0%, and impurities of metal oxides of various nature. It has been established that CSC contains an amorphous fraction of silicon oxide. The main physicochemical characteristics of the carbon-silicon composite have been studied. The structure of the composite was studied by scanning electron microscopy. It has been established that the structure of the CSC is mainly aggregates with an average particle size of 50.9 μm, consisting of layered formations with a developed internal system of pores. The surface area of the composite was determined by the method of multipoint adsorption of nitrogen gases according to the BET method, which is 36 m2 /g. The mechanical activation of the CSC was carried out by grinding in a vibratory and planetary mill at different times. It has been established that the duration of mechanical activation of the carbon-silicon composite contributes to an increase in the specific surface area of the composite.
