Starbons® – A New Family of Bio-based Mesoporous Materials Derived from Polysaccharides

Clark J.H., Budarin V.L., Breeden S.W., Green Chemistry Centre of Excellence, UK

Starches from a wide variety of sources and locations can be physically expanded giving high surface areas and mesoporosity. Heating these materials leads to a family of “Starbons” with tunable surface properties depending upon activation [...]
