Research Advances on Graphene in Supercapacitor Electrode ApplicationPages 102-119
Opeyemi S. Akanbi Abstract:
Materials made up of graphene possess advantageous qualities which make them well-suited for use in supercapacitors and other energy storage devices. These include outstanding electrical conductivity, robustness, outstanding chemical stability, and the ability to adjust the surface area. This review looks at the recent advancements in the use of materials made up of graphene as electrodes in supercapacitors, in terms of their macrostructural complexity, including zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional. Ongoing research is being conducted to comprehend graphene's structure at varying dimensions and scales, to develop cost-effective synthesis methods, to engineer materials based on graphene, and to analyze their electrochemical performance. Further study should be devoted to advancing device performance, as well as to the possibility of executing large-scale operations economically, that could be applied to portable and wearable electronics, transportation, electricity, and hybrid vehicles.
