1D and 3D Carbon Nanomaterials Derived from Zeolite‐Based Catalysts: Synthesis and Applications
Carbon nanomaterials (CNMs) have been extensively developed due to their exceptional electrical, mechanical, and chemical properties. The variety of their dimensions, ranging from one‐dimensional carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to three‐dimensional porous carbons, plays a critical role in providing different functionalities, which are suitable in diverse applications such as supercapacitors, energy storage, and catalysis. Despite their potential applications, precise control over CNM synthesis remains challenging, especially in achieving high purity and uniform structures. One of the promising approaches involves the use of zeolites as catalytic supports, which are defined as uniform microporous frameworks with high thermal stability and tunable acidity. This review highlights the synthesis and application of two main types of CNMs obtained using zeolite‐based catalysts including CNTs and zeolite‐templated carbons (ZTCs). This contribution also delivers a comprehensive overview of their growth mechanisms, synthesis strategies, and recent advancements in CNMs/zeolite composite applications. Finally, we discuss the current limitations and future directions for the rational design of zeolite‐supported catalysts aimed at achieving controlled CNMs synthesis for various applications.
