Nanocomposite Material for Supercapacitor Application

Abstract

Nanocarbon-derived supercapacitors have been focused owing to high surface area, chemical stability, electrical conductivity, and thermal constancy. The nanocarbon materials have been amalgamated with conducting polymers to form supercapacitor electrodes. The nanocarbon fillers may act as pseudocapacitive material to dramatically enhance the electrode performance especially the specific capacitance and energy density. Development of new nanocomposite nanostructures mayovercome the performance challenges posed by low energy density of supercapacitors.Future research progress for nanocarbon-derived supercapacitors depends on understanding the mechanism, design innovation, fabrication, and achievement of high performance materials
