Abstract:
1. A conductive mesoporous carbon composite comprising conductive carbon nanoparticles embedded within a continuous mesoporous carbon matrix which is a continuous phase of a carbon material derived from a resin polymer by carbonization, wherein said conductive mesoporous carbon composite possesses at least a bimodal pore size distribution comprised of at least a first mode of mesopores and a second mode of mesopores, wherein said first mode of mesopores have pore walls constructed of the mesoporous carbon matrix and have a pore size ranging from 2 to 8 nm, and wherein said second mode of mesopores have pore walls delineated by surfaces of said conductive carbon nanoparticles being fused with each other and have a pore size of at least 10 nm and up to 50 nm, and wherein the conductive mesoporous carbon composite is in the form of a film having a thickness of up to 50 microns.
