چکیده

Highly crystalline rutile with a specific surface area as high as 280 m(2) g(-1) and well-connected uniform mesoporosity has been synthesized by rigid templating using commercial, low-cost polyether block amide. This general, simple synthesis route for high surface-area mesoporous nanocrystalline oxides and nanocomposite membranes is important for catalysis, sensors, energy storage, solar cells, heavy metal removal and separations.

Hierarchical Phenolic Resin-based Carbons with High Surface Area and Pore Volume Obtained by Soft-templating and Activation

Introduction Advanced applications often require carbons with high surface area and hierarchical porous structures. In response to this demand some efforts have been undertaken to create materials, which effectively combine the properties of both activated carbons (high surface area) and ordered mesoporous carbons (tunable and well-developed porosity). While there are activation methods, which ...

Chiral nematic mesoporous carbon derived from nanocrystalline cellulose.

Template synthesis based on the self-assembly of lyotropic liquid crystals offers access to mesoporous solids with high specific surface areas and periodic structures. Incorporating mesopores (i.e., pores ranging from 2 to 50 nm in diameter) into carbonaceous materials may be advantageous for certain applications, including the adsorption of large molecules, electrochemical double-layer capacit...
