“…Mesopores and macropores in carbon aerogels are attributed to the distance between these primary particles, while micropores develop within the primary particles themselves ( White et al, 2014 ). Like other stages in the synthesis of carbon aerogels, carbonization conditions can be adjusted to fine-tune the morphological structure, including pore volume, pore size, and surface area ( Allahbakhsh and Bahramian, 2015 ; Liu Y. et al, 2021 ; Abbas et al, 2022 ).…”

Aerogels are remarkable nanoporous materials with unique properties such as low density, high porosity, high specific surface area, and interconnected pore networks. In addition, their ability to be synthesized from various precursors such as inorganics, organics, or hybrid, and the tunability of their properties make them very attractive for many applications such as adsorption, thermal insulation, catalysts, tissue engineering, and drug delivery. The physical and chemical properties and pore structure of aerogels are crucial in determining their application areas. Moreover, it is possible to tailor the aerogel properties to meet the specific requirements of each application. This review presents a comprehensive review of synthesis conditions and process parameters in tailoring aerogel properties. The effective parameters from the dissolution of the precursor step to the supercritical drying step, including the carbonization process for carbon aerogels, are investigated from the studies reported in the literature.

“…However, rechargeable batteries have numerous disadvantages such as inferior power densities, shorter cycle lives, longer charging times, issues with thermal management and environmental safety [1,2]. These issues have compelled scientist to look for an alternative electrical energy storage technology to replace or complement these battery systems to eliminate or at least reduce these issues.…”

“…Carbon-based substances have been successfully used in SCs over the years and are still very popular in these devices due to a number of advantageous reasons, i.e., improved capacitive performance with control over porous structures, which is based on theoretical and experimental studies [20,21]. Together with conventional characteristics, highly porous carbons with dimensionality ranging from 0D to 3D [22] can be synthesised from a wide range of precursors based on biomasses, polymers, metal organic frameworks, and MXenes [23][24][25][26]. These produced carbons can have the following superior structural characteristics: (a) an optimised average pore size (micro-meso pores) for superior charge storage and the efficient movement of electrolyte ions to improve energy densities and retain good power densities, respectively, (b) a large SSA for a large number of adsorption and active sites for electric double layer and pseudo-capacitive charge storage, respectively, (c) an improved surface chemistry through functionalisation to enhance the wettability of the electrode-electrolyte for superior energy storage and good power capabilities, (d) providing a stable and highly conductive platform for long-term stabilities and reduced equivalent series resistance (ESR).…”

Swift developments in electronic devices and future transportation/energy production directions have forced researchers to develop new and contemporary devices with higher power capacities, extended cycle lives, and superior energy densities. Supercapacitors are promising devices with excellent power densities and exceptionally long cycle lives. However, commercially available supercapacitors, which commonly use high-surface-area carbon-based electrodes and organic solutions as electrolytes, suffer from inferior energy densities due to the limited accessibility of surface area and constrained operating potential window of electrolytes. To address the issue of inferior energy densities, new high-capacity electrode materials and new/state-of-the-art electrolytes, such as ionic liquids, gel polymers, or even solid-state electrolytes, have been developed and evaluated vigorously in recent years. In this brief review, different types of supercapacitors, according to their charge storage mechanisms, have been discussed in detail. Since carbon-based active materials are the key focus of this review, synthesis parameters, such as carbonisation, activation, and functionalisation, which can impact a material’s physiochemical characteristics, ultimately affecting the performance of supercapacitors, are also discussed. Finally, the synthesis and applications of different carbon-based materials, i.e., carbon nanotubes, graphene, and activated carbon, have been reviewed, followed by conclusions and outlook.
