“…The nitrogen functionalities may maximize the electroactive surface area within a carbon matrix, enhancing the wettability and the electrochemical performance. [48][49][50][51][52][53] On the other hand, the incorporation of an acrylate polymer segment is expected to overcome the electrospinnability limitation associated with low-molecular weight polynaphthoxazine, and to generate a porous structure in the carbon matrix. 54,55 By controlling the phase separation of the PNEM/ PMMA polymer blend in a mixed solvent, for the first time we were able to fabricate continuous core/shell fibres with an ultrafine PNEM nanofibre core and a PMMA shell, which can subsequently be cured/carbonized to form short carbon nanofibres.…”
