Abstract
Constructing carbonaceous materials with versatile surface structures still remains a great challenge due to limited self-assembly methods, especially at high temperatures. This study presents an innovative template evolution induced relay self-assembly (TEIRSA) for the fabrication of large polyoxometalate (POM)-mixed carbonaceous nanosheets featuring surface mesoporous structures through hydrothermal carbonization (HTC). The method employs POM and acetone as additives, cleverly modulating the Ostwald ripening-like process of P123-based micelles, effectively addressing the instability challenges inherent in traditional soft-template methods, especially within the demanding carbohydrate HTC process. Additionally, this method allows for the independent regulation of surface architectures through the selection of organic additives. The resulting nanosheets exhibit diverse surface morphologies, including surface spherical mesopores, 1D open channels, and smooth surfaces. Their unexpectedly versatile properties have swiftly garnered recognition, showing potential in the application of lithium–sulfur batteries.
