Development of High-Performance Supercapacitor based on a Novel Controllable Green Synthesis for 3D Nitrogen Doped Graphene

Abstract 3D sponge nitrogen doped graphene (NG) was prepared economically from waste polyethylene-terephthalate (PET) bottles mixed with urea at different temperatures using green approach via a novel one-step method. The effect of temperature and the amount of urea on the formation of NG was invest...
