•Furfuryl alcohol impregnated metal-organic frameworks, MIL-100(Fe) were carbonized.•The carbons are featured by nano-sheet structure and narrow pore size distribution.•The surface areas of the resulting carbons range from 298 to 376 m2/g.
Mesoporous carbon materials are of great interest in the field of environmental applications, gas separation and storage, electrode materials for fuel cells, batteries, and etc. Here, we report the synthesis of mesoporous carbons with Fe or Fe3C embedded via carbonization of furfuryl alcohol impregnated metal-organic framework, MIL-100(Fe). The produced carbon materials are featured by nano sheet-like structure, reasonably high specific area (376 m2/g) and narrow mesopore size distribution (centered at around 4.0 nm).
