We propose a new chemical route for forming ultramicropores in carbon nanofibers by using a pore former, camphor, in electrospun polyacrilnitrile nanofibers. The resulting carbon nanofibers form mostly ultramicropores. Total specific surface area was 886 m(2) g(-1), which is similar to the activated carbon nanofibers in CO(2) and steam activation.

TLDR
HiPco single-walled carbon nanotube (HPNT) containing Fe was purified by one-step purification with HCl-washing with D and GD methods, which increases the total surface area and micropore volume and decreases the average pore width.
