Influence of the Hydrophilic Surface of Nanofiber Support on the Performance of Hybrid Supercapacitors

Concerns associated with global warming and the depleting reserves of fossil fuels have highlighted the importance of high−performance energy storage systems (ESSs) for efficient energy usage. ESSs such as supercapacitors can contribute to improved power quality of an energy generation system, which...
