  Abstract

A strategy to improve the cross-section homogeneity of thermal oxidative stabilized polyacrylonitrile for carbon materials was provided in the present work. A kind of comonomer, dimethyl itaconate (DMI), which possesses two bulky side groups was introduced into poly(acrylonitrile-co-itaconic acid). The efficiency of DMI in improving the cross-section homogeneity of polyacrylonitrile films during thermal oxidative stabilization (TOS) processes and the properties of resulted PAN-based carbon materials were investigated in detail. It was found that DMI facilitated the formation of longer cyclic structures, higher oxygen content, more homogeneous cross-section fracture morphology and denser structure during TOS process. DMI was also benefit for easing heat release. The presence of DMI also facilitated a smaller ID/IG value of the carbonized PAN film and a bigger in-plane size of graphite crystals La.
