char - CISMeF

Preferred Label : char;

IUPAC definition : A solid decompostion product of a natural or synthetic organic material.;

Scope note : if the precursor has not passed through a fluid stage, char will retain the characteristic shape of the precursor (although becoming of smaller size). for such materials the term pseudomorphous has been used. some simple organic compounds, e.g. sugar, melt at an early stage of decomposition and then polymerize during carbonization to produce chars.;
