“…They are (i) EDLCs, (ii) pseudocapacitors, and (iii) hybrid supercapacitors . In EDLCs, non-faradaic ion adsorption–desorption from the electrode to electrolyte occurred reversibly and involved various carbon-based materials like activated carbon, carbon aerogel, porous carbon, carbon nanofiber, graphene, CNTs, and transition metal carbides such as MXene. − In pseudocapacitors, complete reversible faradaic reaction of the active metal of the electrode occurred over its surface in aqueous electrolytic solution and included a variety of sulfides, oxides, and hydroxides, preferably from the d-block element. − Conducting polymers such as PANI, PEDOT, as well as MOF were also incorporated under this category. − The third type called as hybrid supercapacitors is available, which includes the composites of carbon materials such as RGO and CNT with various metal sulfides, oxides, and hydroxides as well as with conducting polymers. − From the variety of electrode materials, graphene has been well recognized for the energy storage applications because of its multifarious fascinating properties . However, the restacking between the graphene sheets is the major shortcoming that deteriorates the electrochemical charge storage behavior.…”
