Carbon nanospheres

Crude material twice detonated spontaneously on exposure to air [1]. This compound is recommended as a precursor to carbon nanospheres and carbon nitrides, obtained by slow heating to 150°C under various atmospheres. It is also recommended that it be not handled in greater than 300 mg quantity, behind a shield, being exceedingly... 

Di(azido)-l,2,4>5-tetrazine 399 was used as a precursor for the preparation of carbon nanospheres and nitrogen-rich carbon nitrides (Figure 6) <2004AGE5658>.

PPy consists of five-membered cycUc rings with crosshnking structures (a,a-/Q ,/3-links). Accordingly, PPy has been shown to be an excellent precursor for fabricating various graphitic carbon nanomaterials such as a carbon nanosphere [146], carbon nanocapsule [84,223],CNT [172,249],mesoporous... 

Furthermore, it has been known that monodisperse colloidal spheres have the ability to self-assemble into three-dimensional periodic colloidal crystals, only when their size distributions are less than 5 % [79]. That is a particular challenge to establish a new and facile synthesis strategy toward truly monodispersed carbon nanospheres [80]. Wang et al. [81] have established a new strategy of synthesis of highly uniform carbon nanospheres with precisely tailored sizes and high mono-dispersity on the basis of the benzoxazine chemistry.

With rapid deveiopments of novei nanomateriais, such as graphene (atomicaiiy fiat carbon) or carbon onions (carbon nanospheres), the famiiy of carbon nanomateriais is rapidiy growing, and consequentiy, the need for a revised and updated edition of Carbon Nanomateriais. Keeping the features that made the first edition so popular, this second edition of a bestseiier provides information on synthesis, properties, and appiications of carbon nanomateriais.

Those triazine derivatives are valuable precursors for the preparation of carbon nanospheres nitrogen-rich carbon nitride (CN ) materials. One of the longest known compounds of that type is cyanuric azide (5-triazido-triazine, TAT), from which also some chemistry is reported. Controlled decomposition smdies and detonation smdies of TAT under pressure were performed to give carbon nitrides and graphite particles, respectively. The crystal structure of triazido-heptazine (TAH, Figure 13.12) has been determined recently. ...
