Nitrogen doped porous carbon hollow spheres (N-PCHSs) with an ultrahigh nitrogen content of 15.9 wt% and a high surface area of 775 m(2) g(-1) were prepared using Melamine-formaldehyde nanospheres as hard templates and nitrogen sources. The N-PCHSs were completely characterized and were found to exhibit considerable CO2 adsorption performance (4.42 mmol g(-1)).

The synthesis of silica, carbon or polymer nanospheres and capsules has attracted widespread interest because of their potential applications in the fields of drug delivery, catalysis, photonic crystals, biodiagnostic or energy storage. Special attention has been paid to colloidal silica nanospheres of uniform size. These particles are commonly produced by the hydrolysis and condensation of sil...

Novel nitrogen-rich mesoporous carbon nanospheres (NMCN) with high surface area and ordered pore geometry are prepared via a facile pathway for efficient CO 2 capture contaminant removal applications.

nanotechnology, shortened to nanotech, is the study of the controlling of matter on an atomic and molecular scale. generally, nanotechnology deals with structures sized between 1 to 100 nanometer in at least one dimension and involves developing materials or devices within that size. the use of nanotechnology in the field of pharmaceutics and drug delivery has grown over the last few years, so ...

This paper introduced a process to prepare the carbon nanosphere (CNS)/NiCo2O4 core-shell sub-microspheres. That is: 1) CNSs were firstly prepared via a simple hydrothermal method; 2) a layer of NiCo2O4 precursor was coated on the CNS surface; 3) finally the composite was annealed at 350 °C for 2 hours in the air, and the CNS/NiCo2O4 core-shell sub-microspheres were obtained. This core-shell su...

Simultaneous improvement in CO2 permeability and CO2/N2 selectivity was obtained from mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) containing dual-functionalized mesoporous TiO2 hollow nanospheres (f-MTHS). Dual functionality resulted in the increased CO2 affinity and improved interfacial properties between inorganic nanofillers and the polymer matrix.
