“…1. The initial wheat straw granules were poured over with an aqueous solution of NiCl2 with the salt/raw material ratio 1:10, as had been carried out successfully for other natural precursors in the work [16] (sample NC1_10); 2. Since there is a loss of ≈50% of the initial weight of the raw material in the process of preliminary carbonization, the char of wheat straw granules was poured over with an aqueous solution of NiCl2 with the salt/char ratio 1:5, which in terms of weight of the initial raw material would correspond to the same concentration as in the sample NC1_10 (sample NC2); 3.…”

“…Notwithstanding the significant advances in the synthesis of transition metals NC, many scientists are looking for technologically simpler, cheaper and, most importantly, environmentally friendly ways to obtain NC with high performance characteristics. To achieve this goal, various natural materials [15,16], ready-made porous carbon materials [17], metal foams [18] or polymer matrices [19] are used as substrates. It has been established that the properties of the obtained NC largely depend on the properties of the matrix used and the synthesis method; therefore, it is extremely important to study the structure and properties of NC according to the conditions for their preparation.…”

Synthesis of Ni/C nanostructured composites based on a natural raw material, i.e., wheat straw, is carried out in this work. The synthesis is performed by one- and two-stage methods using NiCl2 as the activating agent. The X-ray diffraction and EDS analyses reveal the presence of metallic nickel in the structure of the composites, whereas magnetic measurements showed that nickel was contained in the porous carbon matrix in the nanoparticle state. For nanocomposites synthesized by the one-stage method, the largest contribution to the formation of the porous structure might be attributed to pores with radii from 5 to 30 nm; for a nanocomposite synthesized in two stages, the pore distribution function exhibits a narrow isolated peak with a maximum of around 2.6 nm. Based on the obtained magnetic data, the coercive force, specific saturation magnetization and nickel content in nanocomposites are calculated. For the measured values of the coercive force, the average size of magnetic moment carriers is determined to be ~100 nm for the two-stage synthesis nanocomposite and ~100 ÷ 110 nm for the one-stage synthesis nanocomposites. The developed Ni/C nanocomposites might be used as a cheap material for energy storage applications or as magnetically controlled adsorbents.

The article presents a technology for producing nitrogen-containing nanoporous biocarbon with high degree of elemental composition homogeneity, confirmed by electron spectroscopy. The research explores the relationship among the electronic characteristics of supramolecular nanoporous carbon, its porous structure, and the capacitance at its interface with the electrolyte. The obtained biocarbon is characterized by micro and mesopores, as evidenced by the results of studies by the method of nitrogen adsorption/desorption. The specific area of the available porous surface was found to be 1247 m2/g. Comparing this result with the data of small-angle X-ray scattering, we conclude that micropores are open while mesopores remain closed. This material was found to have a saturation magnetization σs of 1.4 A∙m2∙kg-1 and a coercive force Hc of 10 kA/m. The impedance studies of electrochemical cells of supercapacitors made of the experimental biocarbon were carried out. Equivalent electrical circuits of the studied electrochemical processes were constructed and characterized.

This article presents the technology for the preparation of a nitrogen-containing nanoporous bio-carbon and investigates its properties. It has been shown that the synthesised bio-carbon is characterised by a high degree of homogeneity, which has been confirmed by energy dispersive spectroscopy. The obtained bio-carbon has a micromesoporous structure, which has been confirmed by the results of studies using the method of low-temperature nitrogen adsorption and desorption. It was found that the specific surface area of biochar is 1247 m2/g. The data on nitrogen adsorption and desorption were compared with the data on small-angle X-ray scattering, and it was found that the micropores in the synthesised bio-carbon are open pores, while mesopores remain closed. The energy dispersion analysis showed that the structure of the bio-carbon does not contain ferromagnetic atoms, but due to the addition of nitrogen, the synthesised bio-carbon in a magnetic field has the properties of a ferromagnet with a characteristic hysteresis of the specific magnetisation. It was found that this material has a saturation magnetisation σs of 1.4 A∙m2∙kg−1 and a coercive force Hc of 10 kA/m. Symmetric supercapacitors were fabricated from the synthesised bio-carbon material with 30% aqueous KOH and 1 M Na2SO4 as electrolytes. It was found that for bio-carbon synthesised at 800 °C, the specific capacitance in a 30% aqueous solution of KOH is 180 F/g, and in a 1 M aqueous solution of Na2SO4, it is 124 F/g. The cyclic voltammetry of the fabricated supercapacitors at different rates of potential expansion was investigated and analysed. Impedance studies on these supercapacitors were carried out. The equivalent electrical circuits describing the electrochemical processes in the studied supercapacitors were constructed and characterised.
