Pore-expanded ordered mesoporous carbons with 2D hexagonal mesostructure were synthesized by a simple nanocasting process.\nWe adopted sucrose as carbon precursors, mesoporous silica materials SBA-15 as the hard templates, and hexane as micelle swelling\nagents.Thepore size distribution ofOMCs was narrowand centered at 5.4 nm,which is larger than the upper limit of pore diameters\ntypically reported for CMK-3. The BET surface area andmesopore volume of PE-CMK-3 can reach to 1213.47m2/g and 1.56 cm3/g,\nrespectively, indicating that choosing large pore size materials as template is good for preparation of high performance of OMCs.
