After the given mesophase pitch is oxidized at 210 or 2h in air, the composition of quinoline insoluble increases by 32.3% and the component distribution tends to narrower. The average pore size and compressive strength of the resultant graphitized foam are about 200| and 2.8MPa, respectively, under the foaming condition of 600 MPa. %K carbon foam %K mesophase pitches %K pre-oxidation %U http://www.jim.org.cn/fileup/PDF/20090223.pdf
