摘要

Our demand for lightweight, compact, and flexible power storage solutions is motivating researchers to develop printable and stretchable supercapacitors. Nanocomposite electrodes have emerged as ideal candidates due to their ability to combine with multiple materials, providing superior electrical conductivity, a vast surface area, and flexible mechanical strength. This report examines methods for developing supercapacitors that utilize flexible, printable nanocomposites designed explicitly for wearable applications. Combining conductive polymers with carbon-based materials and metal oxides or sulfides creates synergistic results that enhance the electrochemical and mechanical performance of electrodes. Scientists have developed easy-to-scale methods for producing these mixtures, which means they can now be used in printing technology's inks. The electrochemical tests revealed that the nanocomposite material exhibits a high energy storage capacity, along with excellent charge handling ability, across various rates and during extended battery life. The mixed nanocomposites proved to be resilient against repetitive bending and folding, as they retained their normal structure. This research demonstrates that hybridized nanocomposites can become the next generation of printed and flexible supercapacitors technology for wearable electronics and other emerging technology fields.
