Synthesis of porous, hollow metal MCO3 (M=Mn, Co, Ca) microstructures and adsorption properties thereof
Porous, hollow metal carbonate microstructures show many unique properties, and are attractive for various applications. Herein, we report the first demonstration of a general strategy to synthesize hollow metal carbonate structures, including porous MnCO3 hollow cubics, porous CoCO3 hollow rhombuse...
