abstract = {Carbon nanocomposites microspheres were synthesized from Low-Density Polyethylene
(LDPE) by a facile one-step strategy under solvent-free conditions. The synthesis of these materials
was carried out in a closed Hastelloy® reactor at 700 ºC. The treatment, during which autogenic
pressure was generated, leads to highly graphitic materials with stunning properties, particularly
concerning the oxidation resistance (compared to the graphite stability). The metallic doping triggers
the growth of nanostructures with diverse morphologies around the spheres, obtaining samples with
magnetic properties.},
