Abstract

The possibility of carbonization of the biomass of Sosnowski hogweed under the conditions of self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) was explored. It was found that carbonization of the hogweed biomass samples taken in the flowering and dead stem phases gave 30‒40% carbonized product. The yield of the carbonized product from the hogweed biomass sample taken in the early vegetative phase (before flowering) did not exceed 2%. Such a low yield may be due to the features of the formation of the nanocarbon precursor in the process of plant development. Analysis by several complementary techniques (Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction) showed that, in terms of their morphometric parameters, the carbonized product particles correspond to 2D nanocarbon, specifically to graphene nanoplatelets.
