| Summary: | Nanopori carbon has been synthesis with material biomass albizia sawdust using a simple heating method. By this method, wood albizia sawdust carbonized to produce activated carbon. Activation has done by two activator that polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Further, more the porosity was characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM) in the three samples of the carbon samples without activation, the carbon samples with PEG and PVA activation. Images were analyzed using MatLab software and Surface Area Analyzer (BET). The results analysis of data obtained for PEG activators produce the greatest porosity in biomass materials, with 88.12% porosity with a pore size range of 4-979 nm and 69.72% for PVA activator with a range of 4-1494 nm pore. In addition the characterized and analysis by BET has obtained average pore <br />

diameter of the carbon sample sawdust activator albizia with PEG and PVA diameter respectively is 16.21 nm and 14.12 nm. |
