Abstract Adsorption isotherms of NO, SO2, NH3, and CO2 onα-FeOOH dispersed activated carbon fibers at 303 K were examined to determine the role of surface modification in micropore filling. The parameters on micropore structures were obtained from both nitrogen adsorption at 77 K and benzene adsorption at 303 K; both isotherms were of BDDTI type and gave the same micropore volume. The preoxidation conditions of ACF, prior to the deposition ofα-FeOOH against the NO adsorptivity were examined. The dispersion ofα-FeOOH on ACF was effective in enhancement of micropore filling, irrespective of the adsorbate molecule. We determined the degree of volume filling for each gas by the use of a DR plot. The modified DR plot for an NO gas, of which the critical temperature was much lower than 303 K, was proposed. The degree of volume filling for various gases was correlated with the deviation of each boiling point from 303 K and with the van der Waalsa constant.
