Abstract
The characteristics of carbon particles (CPs) derived from dry milled biochar originated from Kenaf was investigated. The biochar was processed in dry milling mechanical alloying equipment using two hardened steel vials set and steel balls as a milling media at room temperature. Characterisation of the CPs after 12 hours milling portrays significant changes of the materials in its size and structural transformations. The size is further reduced with a function of time due to the shear forces introduced during milling. The produced CPs is amorphous as interpreted from the Raman and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) spectra.
