Guo, Xiaoyang (author), van de Kleut, Dick (author), Zhang, J. (author), Chen, C. (author), Wang, Xuehang (author), Zheng, Tianye (author), Boles, Steven (author)Activated carbon has long been recognized as a promising electrode material for energy storage devices. The extraordinarily high specific area makes it challenging to replace in supercapacitors since electrical double-layer capacitors need such surfaces but also porous networks to enable electrolyte penetration. As a raw material for...journal article 2024
