The Interplay of Oxygen Functional Groups and Folded Texture in Densified Graphene Electrodes for Compact Sodium-Ion Capacitors

Abstract

Sodium‐ion capacitors (SICs) can effectively combine high energy density with high power density, and are especially appropriate for high‐power demanding applications of large‐scale stationary energy storage. Surface‐induced pseudocapacitive charge storage based on porous or nano carbon materials is regarded as the most promising candidate for SICs. Unfortunately, their ultralow packing densities severely restrict their practical applications. A novel approach toward ultrafast high‐volumetric SICs based on folded‐graphene electrodes has already been demonstrated and showed quite competitive performance. In this work, it is further proved that oxygen functional groups and folded texture are t..
