Quick characterization methods to determine the structure of carbon materials are sought after for a wide array of technical applications. In this study we present the combined analysis of the structure of carbide-derived carbons (CDCs) with Raman sp...

Doping diamond with boron, nitrogen or phosphorus enables a fine tuning of its electronic properties, which is particularly relevant for applications involving electron emission. However, the chemical nature of the doping sites and its correlation wi...

Activated carbons prepared from cashew nut shells and modified by grafting polyethylenimine onto the surface were tested for removal of Cr (VI). The removal efficiency of carbons without and with polyethylenimine decreased with an increase in pH, wit...

We explore the quantum capacitance, stability, and electronic properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes decorated with B12 icosahedral boron clusters by first-principle calculation methods implemented in the SIESTA code. After the optimization of...

In order to select the best mixed amines in the CO2 capture process, the absorption of CO2 in mixed amines was explored at the required concentrations by using monoethanolamine (MEA) as a basic solvent, mixed with diisopropanolamine (DIPA), triethano...

Lead ion adsorption on the surfaces of pristine and oxidized graphite is studied quantitatively using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and standard electrochemical measurements. The XPS analysis confirmed the oxidation of graphite, yielding a f...

The C—Journal of Carbon Research (ISSN 2311-5629) is quite pleased to announce the publication of its 300th article [...]

Porosity is of high importance for functional materials, as it allows for high surface areas and the accessibility of materials. While the fundamental interplay between different pore sizes and functionalities is quite well understood, few studies on...

This manuscript is focused on the relationship between sol-gel synthesis processes and the development of new active phases with fitted morphology, porosity and surface chemistry. The influence of the above parameters on the catalytic performance of...

The present review focuses on the numerous routes for the preparation of fluorinated graphene (FG) according to the starting materials. Two strategies are considered: (i) addition of fluorine atoms on graphenes of various nature and quality and (ii)...
