Abstract

Porous nanocarbons with tunable morphology and pore size were prepared via the carbonization of polyacrylonitrile containing block copolymers. Retention of the nanostructure of the precursor upon pyrolysis was studied for both thin-film and bulk materials. Morphology-dependent preservation of the resulting nanostructure was observed in the latter case.
