Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Carbon black is one of many allotropes of carbon; it is considered to be intermediate between graphite and truly amorphous material. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy techniques can be used to determine the microstructure of materials. In particular for carbon materials these techniques are well suited for distinguishing different allotropes of carbon such as diamond, graphite and carbon black (Donnet et al. 1993; Ferrari and Robertson 2004). Sharp peaks indicate highly ordered / crystalline material whereas amorphous materials typically show very broad, ill-defined peaks.
