Effect of Various Carbonization Temperatures on ZIF-67 Derived Nanoporous Carbons

Here we have prepared ZIF-67 derived nanoporous carbons (NPCs) under different carbonization temperatures ranging from 800 to 1000 °C, and investigated the effect of the temperature on the porous structure. Raman analysis confirms that the graphitic degree of the obtained samples increases as the applied carbonization temperature is increased. With the gradual increase of the graphitic degree, the surface area is decreased.
