a Porod constant, b Scattering invariant Q is proportional to the mean-square density fluctuation of scattering volume. Q = 2π2·Δρ2·V where volume V and scattering contrast Δρ, c Bacground constant which illustrates asymptotic decay of the SAXS curve at the high q values, d The surface-to-volume ratio from the ratio of the Porod constant KP to the Porod invariant Q, S/V = 4KP/Q; e Surface area by SAXS calculated by where d is the bulk density of the material; f The SBET BET surface area was calculated using experimental points at a relative pressure of (P/P0) 0.035–0.31, where P and P0 are denoted as the equilibrium and saturation pressure of nitrogen; g SMIC, the micropore surface area calculated using the t-plot method with fitted statistical thickness in the range of 3.56 to 4.86 Å, h Vt is the total pore volume calculated using 0.0015468 of the amount of nitrogen adsorbed at P/P0 = 0.99, i VMIC the micropore volume by t-plot.
