A versatile sea anemone-inspired strategy toward 2D hybrid porous carbons from functional molecular brushes.

A generalized and facile strategy toward 2D hybrid porous carbons (2DHPCs) with various highly active functional species (e.g. Co, B, and P) is developed via 2D molecular brushes as biomimetic building blocks. The resulting 2DHPCs present superior electrochemical energy conversion and storage properties.
