Nanoporous carbon from corn cobs and its application
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Chemical activation of corn cobs using phosphoric acid or potassium hydroxide can lead to nanoporous carbon having surface area in excess of 3800 m²/g and pore volume of 2.5cc/g. Dried, crushed, corn cobs were carbonized ...
Developing a novel method for making metal oxide nanocoatings for electrocatalysis applications
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
In this dissertation, a new and novel technique to synthesize conformal films of metal oxides on top of nanoscale substrates in different geometries such as carbon nanotubes, carbon black particles, and iron oxide nanoparticles ...
