These composites are primarily designed for high-temperature applications that demand strength retention. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis reveals a distinct carbon peak in the nanocomposites, while Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy indicates the presence of functional group peaks in their respective regions. The aim of this study is to provide a detailed account of the chemical synthesis and characterization of activated carbon/Phenol-Formaldehyde nanocomposites. The results of the XRD and FTIR analyses demonstrate the presence of a sharp carbon peak and functional group peaks in their respective regions. These properties render the composites suitable for high-temperature applications requiring strength retention.}, number={4}, journal={International Journal of Nano Dimension (Int. J.
