Advances in materials and fabrication of separators in supercapacitors

Supercapacitors (SCs) have been extensively used in advanced energy applications due to their superior energy storage capacity and rapid charge-discharge rate. The significant constituents of a SC include two electrodes, an electrolyte and a separator. The integrated performance of all these constit...
