Supercapacitors can charge almost instantly, and discharge enormous amounts of power if needed. They could completely erase the Achilles heel of electric vehicles – their slow charging times – if they ...

On the move: the new model does a good job of describing how ions travel within supercapacitors. (Courtesy: iStock/tang90246) A new model that predicts the charging timescales of supercapacitors much ...

Aqueous, organic and ionic liquid electrolytes can be used as redox reaction mediators in RE-SCs, contributing to enhanced energy density and power density compared to traditional supercapacitors (SCs ...

Researchers have discovered a way to significantly improve the performance of supercapacitors by creating a novel electrolyte from an Indian tree gum. The research team showed that the biopolymer, ...

Researchers at UCLA have developed a new method for growing PEDOT nanofibers with exceptional energy storage capabilities. “The advance could lead to supercapacitors that can meet some energy storage ...
