  • Upper Limit of Nitrogen Content in Carbon Materials
    Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English), 2014
    Co-Authors: Shiguo Zhang, Seiji Tsuzuki, Kazuhide Ueno, Kaoru Dokko, Masayoshi Watanabe
    Abstract:

    Nitrogen-doped carbon materials (NDCs) play an important role in various fields. A great deal of effort has been devoted to obtaining carbon materials with a high Nitrogen Content; however, much is still unknown about the structure of the Nitrogen-doped materials and the maximum Nitrogen Content possible for such compounds. Here, we demonstrate an interesting relationship between the N/C molar ratio and the N Content of NDCs. The upper limit for the Nitrogen Content of NDCs that might be achieved was estimated and found to strongly depend on the carbonization temperature (14.32 wt % at 1000 °C and 21.66 wt % at 900 °C), irrespective of the precursor or preparation conditions. Simulations suggest that, especially in the carbon architectures obtained at high temperatures, Nitrogen atoms are always located on separate hexagon moieties in a graphitic configuration, thereby yielding a critical N/C molar ratio very close to the value estimated from the experimental results.
