Abstract:A facile one-step procedure for a template-assisted fabrication of hollow carbon tubes is reported, using organic halides as the carbon source. The shape-persistent tubes are obtained with arbitrary shapes as hollow replicas of the metal template. They feature a high quality of graphite, and a high conductivity of 1.31 ± 0.05 · 10 S·m .
A novel 1D porous carbon nanocapsule (PCNC) has been successfully fabricated by heat treatment of the in situ synthesized polypyrene nanocapsule, where the diameter of the capsule wall can be easily tuned.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
