Effect of molecular grafting on the pore size distribution and the double lay…

Abstract. High specific surface carbon (Black Pearls 2000) has been modified by electroactive anthraquinone (AQ) groups by spontaneous reduction of the corresponding in situ generated diazonium derivative. A set of modified carbons with different AQ loadings have been synthesized to study the effect of the grafted groups on the pore texture and on the double layer capacitance of the modifi…
