摘要
Structurally well ordered, sulfur-doped microporous carbon materials have been successfully prepared by a nanocasting method using zeolite EMC-2 as a hard template. The carbon materials exhibited well-resolved diffraction peaks in powder XRD patterns and ordered micropore channels in TEM images. Adjusting the synthesis conditions, carbons possess a tunable sulfur content in the range of 1.3-6.6 wt.%, a surface area of 729-1627 m(2)g(-1) and a pore volume of 0.60-0.90 cm(3)g(-1). A significant proportion of the porosity in the carbons (up to 82% and 63% for surface area and pore volume, respectively) is contributed by micropores. The sulfur-doped microporous carbons exhibit isosteric heat of hydrogen adsorption up to 9.2 kJ mol(-1) and a high hydrogen uptake density of 14.3 x 10(-3) mmol M-2 at -196 degrees C and 20 bar, one of the highest ever observed for nanoporous carbons. They also show a high CO2 adsorption energy up to 59 kJ mol(-1) at lower coverages (with 22 kJ mol(-1) at higher CO2 coverages), the highest ever reported for any porous carbon materials and one of the highest amongst all the porous materials. These findings suggest that S-doped microporous carbons are potential promising adsorbents for hydrogen and CO2. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
