Because of their abundant porosity, tunable surface properties, and high stability, N-doped porous carbons (NPCs) are highly promising for CO2 capture. Carbonization of N-containing polymers is frequently used for the preparation of NPCs, while such an approach is hindered by the high cost of some p...
