Abstract

This study introduces a new porous carbon for electrochemical CO₂ capture. Featuring both micro- and mesoporosity, it outperforms predominantly microporous YP80F (a commercial benchmark) by delivering faster CO₂ adsorption and lower energy consumption. This highlights the importance of mesoporosity in designing improved supercapacitor electrodes for rapid, energy-efficient electrochemical CO₂ capture.
