Abstract

The porous carbon nanotubes were selectively prepared from the pristine carbon nanotubes. The surface of carbon nanotubes was firstly functionalized with Fe2O3 nanoparticles and subsequent heat treatment induced CNT etching. After removal of Fe2O3 nanoparticles, mesopores were formed in carbon nanotubes and thus porous structure was obtained. The obtained material of porous carbon nanotubes with higher specific surface area and larger pore sizes was tested as anode material of lithium ion batteries and showed improved performance with respect to the pristine carbon nanotubes.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
