The structure comprises two parts: surface groups and carbonaceous cores. The surface groups being predominantly oxygen-containing functional groups, e.g. hydroxy, carboxy, etc., the carbonaceous core being predominantly internally bound by sp 2 And sp (sp) 3 The hybridized carbon is formed into amorphous carbon, graphite microcrystals, single-layer or multi-layer graphene fragments and the like.
