摘要
An easy one step and scalable process for the synthesis of multilayer macroporous polymer and carbon films is demonstrated by using spin coated thin films of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) in N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF) solvent followed by their carbonization. The interconnected porous carbon films were characterized by various techniques including SEM, HRTEM, Raman, XRD, BET and AFM. Phase-separation/dewetting in sub-micrometer thick films spontaneously produced a macroporous (pore diameter >50 nm) polymer films with hole density in the range of 10(8)-10(9) per cm(2) and BET area of similar to 175 m(2)/g. Increased porosity can be tailored under the conditions that favor greater destabilization of the spin coated films such as reduced film thickness, higher evaporation rate and lower viscosity. Further, Ag/carbon hybrid films were prepared by incorporation of a silver salt in the solution prior to spin coating. The Ag/carbon porous films show good activity in the reduction of para-nitrophenol to para-aminophanol with sodium borohydride. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
