Porous Carbon Materials

Ionic liquid-assisted synthesis of mesoporous polymers and carbon materials: the self-assembly mechanism

“…Within all the templating methodologies, soft-templating synthesis, based on the self-assembly of amphiphiles, can effectively tune the structure while eliminating the template easily thus is one of the most adopted strategies to fabricate ordered mesoporous polymer and carbon materials. 3–7 Commercial block copolymers such as Pluronic F127 are typical soft templates which are widely used. However, they are generally decomposed via thermal treatment during the pore structures generating process.…”

Recent advances in metal-free heteroatom-doped carbon heterogonous catalysts

“…In recent years, the designed synthesis of porous carbons through self-assembly of precursors controlled hydrothermal treatment, and carbonization has gained remarkable attention owing to the exact control and simple modification of the final materials. 120 …”
