Estimation of Mechanical Stability and Resistance of Microporous Materials Prepared by Pyrolysis

A theoretical method for the estimation of mechanical stability and resistance of microporous materials is proposed. The method is based on the combined fractal/thermodynamic model of microporous media. The proposed method is utilized for the evaluation of parameters of mechanical resistance of microporous materials prepared by pyrolysis, using the thermodynamic theory of pyrolytical microporous structure. An engineering method for the evaluation of mechanical resistance of microporous materials is derived.
