“…The key to solving this problem lies in the rational selection of electrode materials, which determine the electrochemical performance of SCs. Among various electrode materials, carbon materials including carbon nanotubes (Sharma et al, 2015), carbon nanosphere (Cui and Zhu, 2014), active carbon (Kołodynska et al, 2016), and graphene (Wang et al, 2017;Yang et al, 2017) have been widely utilized for high-performance SCs constructions because of their impressive merits such as large surface area, prominent electrical conductivity, admirable long-term cycling stability, good mechanical properties, low production cost, and environmental friendliness (Gnanasekaran et al, 2017;Zhao et al, 2017;Guo et al, 2018). Among them, graphene has been considered as the most attractive candidate due to its high theoretical surface area (2,630 m 2 g −1 ), impressive electrical conductivity and unique structure (Cao et al, 2011;Shen et al, 2017;Yu et al, 2017).…”

Graphene for energy storage devices suffers from the preparation method and deficient quality, hindering their further widespread application. Here, we report a facile and cost-effective approach to derive three-dimensional porous graphene (3DPG) from biocompatible chitosan for massive production. Taking advantage of the large surface area, excellent electrical conductivity and high electrochemical activity of the 3DPG, an advanced symmetric supercapacitor (3DPG//3DPG SCs) is achieved by coupling two 3DPG electrodes in commercial DLC301 organic electrolyte. The device delivers a remarkable capacitance of 168.9 F g-1 at the scan rate of 10 mV s-1 and displays a superior rate capability, witnessing 81.5% capacitance retention from 10 to 100 mV s-1. Furthermore, the 3DPG//3DPG SCs exhibits prominent cyclic durability, as evidenced by its 96% capacitance after 10,000 cycles. This work might shed light on the probable application of graphene at industrial level for efficient energy storage.

Electromagnetic wave (EMW) radiation pollution is getting more severe as result of the advancement of electronic technology. Researching shielding materials with superior EMI (electromagnetic interference) shielding characteristics is therefore crucial. Basalt fibers (BFs) have been an emerging candidate in the fiber‐reinforced polymer (FRP) category due to their favorable mechanical and chemical properties, along with being favorites in sustainability and having low production costs. Therefore, due to the rising need for cheaper and efficient alternatives in the EMI shielding industry, the EMI shielding is covered in terms of BF composite materials and their properties in this review, starting with the EMI shielding mechanism and followed by how BF composites affect the EMI properties. This review then covers the post‐treatments of BF composites and, finally, the factors of the composites that affect the EMI properties. Moreover, the EMI shielding applications in which BFRPs are used are comprehensively discussed as well. This review aspires to bridge an understanding between EMI shielding as a material property and the BF composites that are developed to aid in the EMI shielding application.
