description

Acetylene CVD carbon replication of a hierarchical pore silica-based material, Fe-UVM-7, is reported. The original template organization, which is based on the aggregation of mesoporous nanoparticles, is accurately replicated in the final carbon material: a bimodal porous carbon combining mesoporous nanoparticles and inter-particle textural-like pores which provide high surface area, a highly accessible pore system and semi-crystalline pore walls in the form of graphitic-like nanodomains is presented.
