Binderless ordered mesoporous carbon monoliths from low value coal tar-derived products

Ordered mesoporous carbons (OMCs) have been obtained by the hard template method using different carbon precursors such as sucrose, furfuryl alcohol, propylene or acetylene, among others. These materials have been used as the active components in electrodes for energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors, taking advantage of their hierarchical porous texture. However, in these applications, the OMCs usually need to be mixed with a binder and a conductive additive to prepare the electrodes. In this work, we have used creosote, a by-product of the distillation of coal tar, as carbon precursor for the synthesis of OMCs, from which binderless monoliths were prepared
