Polyaniline and heteroatoms–enriched carbon derived from Pithophora polymorpha composite for high performance supercapacitor

Agricultural product-derived carbon for energy, sensing, and environmental applications: A mini-review

“…The carbonized product was washed with 0.5 M HCl and DI water and finally dried at 60°C for 24 h to obtain the porous ADCs nanosheets. Similarly, various agricultural wastes have been used for the preparation of efficient ADCs materials, including tal palm leaves (Ahammad et al, 2019a), jam leaves (Deb Nath et al, 2019), bhant leaves (Haque et al, 2020a), rain/monkey pod tree leaves (Khan et al, 2020), rice husks (Haque 2020b), taro stems (Ahammad et al, 2018), Pithophora polymorpha filaments (Shah et al, 2020), banana leaves (Roy et al, 2020), and waste tissue paper scraps (Senthilkumar et al, 2020). Reproduced with permission (Aziz et al, 2017…”

“…This indicates that the preparation of valuable and useful ADCs is important. ADCs are extensively used in different fields, including sensing (Aziz et al, 2020;Ahammad et al, 2019a;Ahammad et al, 2019b;Ahammad et al, 2018;Haque et al, 2020a;Aziz et al, 2017;Haque et al, 2020b), microbial fuel cells (Senthilkumar et al, 2020), filtration/separation (Aziz et al, 2019;Khan et al, 2020), oil recovery (Haq et al, 2019), electrochemical water splitting (Shah et al, 2019;Buliyaminu et al, 2020), electrode materials for supercapacitors (Mohamedkhair et al, 2020;Islam et al, 2020;Shah et al, 2020;Deb Nath et al, 2019;Aziz et al, 2020), and in other emerging technology applications. In addition, unique properties of the ADCs like versatile porosity, high specific-surface-area (SSA), and high electrical and thermal conductivities attracted much attention of the researchers to utilize them in various applications.…”

Preparation and Utilization of Jute‐Derived Carbon: A Short Review

“…[6,8,11] The unique properties of these agriculturalproduct-derived materials include their carbon-like high-surface area, versatile porosity, and high electrical and thermal conductivity, allowing them to be used in many different applications. Various agricultural byproducts such as date palm leaves, [4,12,13] tal palm leaves, [14] Albizia procera leaves, [15][16][17] Syzygium cumini leaves, [8] taro stems, [18] rice husks, [19] Pithophora polymorpha, [20] tomato stems, [21] barley straws, [22] sunflower piths, [23] lotus stalks, [24] peanut shell, [25] carrot residue, [26] citrus fruits, [27] and orange peel [28] have been used as suitable precursors for the production of low-cost carbonaceous materials.…”

Enhanced Oxygen Evolution via Electrochemical Water Oxidation using Conducting Polymer and Nanoparticle Composites

“…Besides the carbon, a polymer as support of the electrocatalyst for enhancing the electrocatalytic properties is reported. [30] The conducting polymers such as polypyrrole (PPY), [31,32] polyaniline (PANI), [33][34][35] and polythiophene [36,37] poly (3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene) : poly(styrene sulfonate) [38,39] and others [40] could be prepared either electrochemically or chemically. The chemically prepared polymer has some advantages such as preparation of bulk amounts, which can be used as electrode materials gradually.…”
