Herein, we present a facile synthesis of mesoporous carbons with
different porous structures (ordered and disordered) via organic–organic
self-assembly using liquefied larch as carbon resources and mixture
copolymers as templates. The porous structure of the carbons is further
tailored by the ratio of hydrophilic/hydrophobic units (EO/PO).
Furthermore, we illustrate the mechanism of the self-assembly and the
interaction between larch-based resins and templates, in an attempt to
attract more attention and determine the real value of these mesoporous
carbons. Furthermore, these mesoporous carbons as supercapacitor
electrodes are tested to evaluate the capacitive performance, and the
effect of the morphology and porous structure of carbons on the
electrochemical properties is investigated.
