Effect of Carbon Source on the Textural and Electrochemical Properties of Novel Cage-type Mesoporous Carbon as a Replica of KIT-5 Mesoporous Silica

Novel cage-type mesoporous carbon "carbon nanocage (CNC)," which is prepared as a carbon replica of HIT-5 mesoporous silica, showed a high electrochemical performance as an electrode material, due to the high specific surface area and mesopore volume as well as the sparse carbon network.
