Abstract

Mesoporous carbons were prepared via spinodal decomposition of non-amphiphilic linear polyethylene glycol with phloroglucinol–formaldehyde resin under refluxing acidic ethanol conditions. By shifting the molecular weight and the concentration of polyethylene glycol, both mesopore size and volume can be tuned.
