One-Pot Synthesis of Melamine Formaldehyde Resin-Derived N-Doped Porous Carbon for CO₂ Capture Application.

ABSTRACT: The design and synthesis of porous carbons for CO₂ adsorption have attracted tremendous interest owing to the ever-soaring concerns regarding climate change and global warming. Herein, for the first time, nitrogen-rich porous carbon was prepared with chemical activation (KOH) of commercial melamine formaldehyde resin (MF) in a single step. It has been shown that the porosity parameters of the as-prepared carbons were successfully tuned by controlling the activating temperature and adjusting the amount of KOH. Thus, as-prepared N-rich porous carbon shows a large surface area of 1658 m²/g and a high N content of 16.07 wt%. Benefiting from the unique physical and textural features, the optimal sample depicted a CO₂ uptake of up to 4.95 and 3.30 mmol/g at 0 and
