Porous structured cotton-based ACF for the adsorption of benzen.

Fibrous activated carbon has attracted emerging research interests due to its remarkable adsorption performance for volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Though this adsorption behavior for VOCs is closely related to the pore structure on the surface of activated carbon fiber (ACF), few researchers paid attentions to the influence of textural properties of this adsorption process. Especially, cotton-based activated carbon fiber (CACF) for adsorbing benzene pollutant is rarely reported.

Preparation of Flexible Substrate Electrode for Supercapacitor With High-Performance MnO Stalagmite Nanorod Arrays.

A large-area MnO stalagmite nanorod arrays (SNAs) growing vertically on flexible substrates were successfully fabricated by an easy heat-electrodeposition method. The large specific capacitance (646.4 F g at 500 mA g) and excellent rate capability (42.
