Since the packed natural protein containing fibre structure has been obtained by packing protein containing fibres into the mould, the packed natural protein containing fibre structure has a size and a shape which corresponds to the size and shape of the mould. Furthermore, the packing density of the packed natural fibre containing structure can be controlled by controlling the packing process to obtain a predetermined packing density.

  • the step of performing pyrolysis on the packed natural protein containing fibre structure may comprise positioning the packed natural carbon containing fibres in a furnace and reducing an oxygen level inside the furnace, such as minimising the oxygen content inside the furnace. This may, e.g., be obtained by supplying an inert gas, such as nitrogen, into the furnace.

  • the method may further comprise the step of cutting the natural protein containing fibres before packing the fibres into the mould.
  • the cutting may be performed using mechanical or chemical methods. According to this embodiment, the size of the natural protein containing fibres is controlled, and the smaller, cut fibres fit more easily into the mould.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'une structure de carbone en trois dimensions (4). Un moule (1) définissant une forme en trois dimensions est utilisé, et des fibres contenant une protéine naturelle sont tassées dans le moule (1) à une densité de tassement prédéterminée. La structure fibreuse contenant une protéine naturelle tassée (3) subit une pyrolyse, tout en étant encore dans le moule (1) ou après avoir été retirée du moule (1). De ce fait, une structure de carbone en trois dimensions électro-conductrice et poreuse (4) présentant une forme en trois dimensions définie par la forme en trois dimensions du moule (1) et une porosité définie par la densité de tassement de la structure fibreuse contenant une protéine naturelle tassée est obtenue (3). La structure de carbone (4) est tout à fait appropriée pour une utilisation en tant qu'échafaudage pour le génie tissulaire, ou pour matériau pour batteries, piles à combustible, supercondensateurs, sorbants pour des procédés de séparation, stockage de gaz, supports pour de nombreux catalyseurs importants, etc.
