Abstract
Mesoporous carbons (MCs) with controllable pore structure and pore size have been prepared by direct carbonization of composites of reverse compolymer-phloroglucinol/formaldehyde. The microstructure of the MCs was analyzed by small-angle X-ray scattering, nitrogen adsorption isotherms and transmission electron microscope. The results showed the pore size of the obtained MCs can be easily tuned from 6.4 to 11.4 nm. Furthermore, the inkbottle-like or cylindrical pore structure of MCs can be obtained by simply adjusting the ratios of formaldehyde and phloroglucinol.
