A general and facile synthesis strategy towards highly porous carbons: carbonization of organic salts

Abstract

Highly porous carbons with different textural properties were obtained in only one step by means of simple heat-treatment of organic salts of Na, K or Ca. The pore characteristics were tuned from a microporous to a mesoporous carbon by simply choosing the appropriate organic salt.
