Abstract |
Hierarchical mesoporous carbon was prepared using starch as precursor at 700 oC, then , it was used to adsorb the amylase and the hydrolysis property for starch was investigated. The mesoporous carbon was characterized by nitrogen adsorption-desorption isotherm, XRD, FTIR and SEM. The result showed that its had developed mesoporous structure, the pore size distribution in 3-5nm and 10-15nm, and plenty hydrophilic groups.The adsorption capacity of amylase was 80mg/g and it hydrolysis activity was kept as 95% after 6 runs due to the plenty hydrophilic groups, which could interact with the nitrogen group of amylase. |
