Figures & data
Figure 1. First two pictures (A, B) were done in low resolution mode to demonstrate shape parameters of granules of HSGD carbons. Granule in the middle of the first picture was taken for high magnification examination. Three last pictures (C, D, E) are consequent magnification zooms of the same area on the granule. Scale bars are provided in the bottom right corner of each picture. Numbers correspond to the length of the entire scale bars.
