From Starch to Carbon Materials: Insight into the CrossLinking ...
As a renewable biomass product, starch is a fantastic source for preparing various advanced carbon materials. But starch shows poor thermal stability. Its original spherical morphology tends to be disrupted by direct pyrolysis, and the carbon yield is low. Thus, prestabilization by chemical crosslinking is an effective approach to address the above issue. Herein, corn starch was crosslinked ...
