Research Abstract |
Mesoporous carbon films were prepared via a process that allows coating on various substrates, including metals. The mesomorphology can be controlled by changing starting composition in an appropriately-designed reaction system. Systematic characterizations have revealed that the obtained carbons exhibit structure-induced hydrophilization depending on the mesomorphology. Chemically-modified hydrophilic carbons are well known to facilitate an electrode reaction in a polar system. The materials obtained here potentially provide the similar effect.
