^a). Mean values of three measurements are reported. The range of data was within ± 10% of the mean.

^b). The micropore surface and pore volume (values in parenthesis) from a t-plot using Harkins-Jula average thickness.

^c). The samples were from the same batches as those prepared in the recent work [31].
