Ordered Mesoporous Carbons with Graphitic Tubular Frameworks via Dual Templating for Efficient Electrocatalysis and Energy Storage
2020
Ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) have attracted considerable interest owing to their broad utility. OMCs reported to date comprise amorphous rod-like or tubular or graphitic rod-like frameworks, which exhibit a tradeoff between conductivity and surface area. Here we report ordered mesoporous carbons comprising graphitic tubular frameworks (OMGCs) with tunable pore sizes and mesostructures via dual templating, using mesoporous silica and molybdenum carbide as exo - and endo -templates, respectively. OMGCs simultaneously realize high electrical conductivity and a large surface area and pore volume. Benefitting from these features, Ru nanoparticles (NPs) supported on OMGC exhibit superior catalytic activity for alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction and single-cell performance for anion exchange membrane water electrolysis to Ru NPs on other OMCs and commercial catalysts. Further, the OMGC-based full-carbon symmetric cell demonstrates excellent performances for Li-ion capacitors.
