Zirconium-promoted hydrothermal synthesis of hierarchical porous carbons with ordered cubic mesostructures under acidic aqueous conditions

Hierarchical porous carbons with ordered cubic mesostructure (Im3m) were synthesized under acidic aqueous conditions by a zirconium-promoted hydrothermal method, F127 as template, pre-synthesized resol as precursor, and hydrochloric acid as catalyst.

Tuned surface area and mesopore diameter of ordered mesoporous carbon: ultrahigh decontamination of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate

High surface area ordered mesoporous carbons were fabricated as superior adsorbents for ultrahigh decontamination of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate from a model water pollutant.
