of CDPAC samples were recorded on a Shimadzu XD-3A (Japan)
goniometer, using Cu Kα radiation operated at 40 kV and 35 mA.
Surface morphology analysis of CDPAC was performed using a Quanta
200 FEG high-resolution scanning electron microscope and an FEI Tecnai
G20 high-resolution transmission electron microscope instrument. The
adsorption–desorption isotherms were obtained using a Quantachrome
Autosorb-1 volumetric analyzer, and the specific surface area was
determined by the BET method.
