Smart Nano-Gate SuperCarbon Composite for Supercapacitor or Battery

Objective
Technology

Research at SDSU has developed a preparation methods for producing functional carbon composites from biochar an abundant byproduct from biofuel production. The carbon composites have shown to possess smart nano-gate properties to achieve electro-field stimuli-responsive control of ions and electrons transfer whichprevents leakage after charging as well as enables a smart control for charging and discharging of supercapacitors or superbatteries.
