Abstract
A new sustainable approach for the synthesis of highly porous carbon cryogels and aerogels is presented. Such monolithic carbogels have been obtained via the hydrothermal gelation of a phenolic compound, i.e. phloroglucinol, with monosaccharides, i.e. glucose, fructose or xylose. While the carbon precursors used herein can be isolated from lignocellulosic biomass, the hydrothermal carbonization process does not involve any catalyst, making our...
