A sustainable multi-function biomorphic material for pollution remediation or UV absorption: aerosol assisted preparation of highly porous ZnO-based materials from cork templates

For the first time, highly porous ZnO-based biomorphic materials were synthesised using cork as a natural sustainable template. In the first step, waste cork powder was pyrolysed and converted into inorganic carbon. This template was then infiltrated using a novel approach employing an aerosol of zi...
