All-polymer and paper-based energy storage devices have significant inherent advantages in comparison with many currently employed batteries and supercapacitors regarding environmental friendliness, flexibility, cost and versatility. The research within this field is currently undergoing an exciting development as new polymers, composites and paper-based devices are being developed. In this report, we review recent progress concerning the development of flexible energy storage devices based on electronically conducting polymers and cellulose containing composites with particular emphasis on paper-based batteries and supercapacitors. We discuss recent progress in the development of the most commonly used electronically conducting polymers used in flexible device prototypes, the advantages and disadvantages of this type of energy storage devices, as well as the two main approaches used in the manufacturing of paper-based charge storage devices.

“…Numerous investigations have been conducted with a goal of utilizing the high SC of polypyrrole in ES. Impressive progress has already been made in the fabrication and testing of polypyrrole films prepared by various methods, such as emulsion polymerization [2], layer-by-layer assembly [3], chemical [4] and electrochemical polymerization [5]. The mechanism of charge storage in the polypyrrole electrodes has been investigated using quartz crystal microbalance method [5].…”

Polypyrrole films were deposited by anodic electropolymerization on stainless steel substrates from aqueous pyrrole solutions containing sodium salicylate and tiron additives. The deposition yield was studied under galvanostatic conditions. The amount of the deposited material was varied by the variation of deposition time at a constant current density. SEM studies showed the formation of porous films with thicknesses in the range of 0–3 μm. Cyclic voltammetry data for the films tested in 0.5 M Na2SO4 solutions showed capacitive behavior and high specific capacitance (SC) in a voltage window of 0.9 V. The films prepared from pyrrole solutions containing tiron showed better capacitive behavior compared to the films prepared from the solutions containing sodium salicylate. A highest SC of 254 F g−1 was observed for the sample with a specific mass of 89 μg cm−2 at a scan rate of 2 mV s−1. The SC decreased with an increasing film thickness and scan rate. The results indicated that the polypyrrole films deposited on the stainless steel substrates by anodic electropolymerization can be used as electrodes for electrochemical supercapacitors (ES).

“…Additionally, it may be used in chemical/biological sensing, drug delivery, energy storage, and intelligent switching materials [9][10][11]. Up to date, the template techniques [12][13][14] and the template-free techniques [15][16][17] have mainly been employed to obtain nanoarchitectures of CPs. Although the template-based techniques are frequently used, the removal of template (e.g., anodic aluminum oxide and track-etched polycarbonate) may impair the nanoarchitectures due to the usage of strong acidic or basic medium.…”
