摘要：The reported mechanical strength of carbon nanocoils (CNCs) obtained from traditional preparation of catalytic acetylene pyrolysis is far below its theoretical value. Herein, we report a molten salt electrolysis method that employs CO32– as feedstock to grow CNCs without using metal catalyst. We meticulously mediate the alkalinity of molten carbonate to tune the electrochemical reduction of CO32– on graphite electrode to selectively grow CNCs in Li2CO3–Na2CO3–K2CO3–0.001 wt %Li2O. Graphite substrate, current density, and alkalinity of molten salt dictate the growth of CNCs. In addition, the el
