ABSTRACT

In the recent years, 1-D nanodomain of carbon materials particularly carbon nanotubes has shown tremendous impact as an effective electrode material to construct supercapacitor devices as it imparts high thermal and electrical conductivity, high tensile strength, and high surface area. Although 1-D carbon nanostructures can be excellent supercapacitor electrode materials, the main challenges are to grasp the physiochemical properties along with the electrochemical behavior of these nanomaterials within multicomponent-fabricated charge storage systems. Here, we provide an insight on the different aspects of the use of 1-D nanostructured carbon materials as potential electrode materials for power storage devices, providing various concepts of multiple strategies for constructing improved flexible energy storage devices for commercial applications, ranging from wearable solid-state electronic devices to hybrid ecofriendly electric vehicles.
