“…Such an enhancement in the capacitance can be attributed to a number of factors. GO with higher specific surface area increases the functioning area of the nanocomposite/electrolyte interface whereas the layered structure of GO diminishes the diffusion length of the electrolyte ions [ 50 , 51 ]. This improves the specific capacitance by increasing the electroactive region.…”

In this work, flexible plasticized starch/graphene oxide (PS/GO) nanocomposites are synthesized by a simple and economic solution cast technique. The structural and surface morphological study of the nanocomposite demonstrates an increased degree of interaction between PS and GO which in turn improves the mechanical strength and thermal stability of the nanocomposite. The influence of GO loading on the capacitive performance of the nanocomposite was evaluated by studying the electrochemical properties. The PS/GO nanocomposite showed an improved capacitive behavior with a specific capacitance of 115 F/g compared to that of pure starch (2.20 F/g) and GO (10.42 F/g) at a current density 0.1 mA/cm 2 . The electrochemical impedance analysis indicates that the incorporation of GO enhances the conductivity of the nanocomposite in the charge transfer resistance at the electrode/electrolyte interface due to the incorporation of GO. The large surface areas provided by the GO sheets allow faster transport of charge carriers into the electrode and improve the electrochemical properties of the PS/GO nanocomposite. Considering the simplicity and effectiveness of the synthesis proses, the result indicates that the PS/GO nanocomposite could be a potential alternative for bio-friendly, flexible energy-storage applications.

“…Graphene foams, due to their excellent porous structure, are a light material that combines the properties of two-dimensional graphene sheets and the three-dimensional system they form when joined together. The large pore volume and subsequent high specific surface area of the material, its thermal stability, high electronic conductivity, and high ion transfer rate all contribute to graphene foams’ functionality in energy storage devices 28 , 33 , 34 . Hence, to further improve their properties, increase electrode capacity, and power or energy density, many researchers try to dope graphene materials with metal compounds or metal oxides, or to create composites with other active materials 35 – 38 .…”

The synthesis of metal-free but electrochemically active electrode materials, which could be an important contributor to environmental protection, is the key motivation for this research approach. The progress of graphene material science in recent decades has contributed to the further development of nanotechnology and material engineering. Due to the unique properties of graphene materials, they have found many practical applications: among others, as catalysts in metal-air batteries, supercapacitors, or fuel cells. In order to create an economical and efficient material for energy production and storage applications, researchers focused on the introduction of additional heteroatoms to the graphene structure. As solutions for functionalizing pristine graphene structures are very difficult to implement, this article presents a facile method of preparing nitrogen-doped graphene foam in a microwave reactor. The influence of solvent type and microwave reactor holding time was investigated. To characterize the elemental content and structural properties of the obtained N-doped graphene materials, methods such as elemental analysis, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy were used. Electrochemical activity in ORR of the obtained materials was tested using cyclic voltamperometry (CV) and linear sweep voltamperometry (LSV). The tests proved the materials’ high activity towards ORR, with the number of electrons reaching 3.46 for tested non-Pt materials, while the analogous value for the C-Pt (20 wt% loading) reference was 4.

“…Moreover, the fast development of intelligent and smart materials have contributed significantly to the application of supercapacitors in various fields, such as medical treatment, wearable technology, military devices and so on [5,6,7,8,9]. Generally, according to the different energy storage mechanisms, supercapacitors can be divided into two groups: Electrical double layer capacitance (EDLC) and pseudo-capacitance [10,11,12]. For the former, energy storage depends on the adsorbed ion by electrostatic charge between the electrode/electrolyte interface.…”

An asymmetric supercapacitor was prepared on a sheet of filter paper with two modified surfaces acting as electrodes in 1 M potassium hydroxide aqueous solution. By choosing carbon nanotubes and two different kinds of metal oxides (zinc oxide and ferro ferric oxide) as electrode materials, the asymmetric supercapacitor was successfully fabricated. The results showed that this device exhibited a wide potential window of 1.8 V and significantly improved electrochemical performances of its counterparts. Particularly, the one-sheet asymmetric supercapacitor demonstrated high energy density of 116.11 W h/kg and power density 27.48 kW/kg, which was attributed to the combined action and shortened distance between the two electrodes, respectively. Besides, it showed superior electrochemical cycling stability with 87.1% capacitance retention under room temperature. These outstanding results can not only give researchers new insights into compact energy storage systems, but they also provide a good prospect for flexible asymmetric supercapacitors.
