Abstract

The nanostructure and morphology of mesoporous carbon obtained from a newly designed porous geopolymer template were characterized by low-voltage high-resolution scanning electron microscopy. The present porous carbon exhibited a large specific surface area and pore volume, resulting in a high CO₂ uptake capacity.
