High Capacitive Performance of N,O-Codoped Carbon Aerogels Synthesized via a One-Step Chemical Blowing and In Situ Activation Process

Biomass and its derivatives, with their renewable characteristics, cost-effectiveness, and controllable structural and compositional properties, are promising precursors for carbon materials. Herein, N,O-codoped carbon aerogels were synthesized by carbonization and zinc nitrate activation of histidine. The specific surface area (SSA) was markedly increased with the addition of zinc nitrate, and the maximum value achieved 853 m
