The superior mechanical durability of the supercapacitor was confirmed by cyclic voltammetry (CV) curves, which showed little change during 1000 bending cycles. The pseudocapacitive properties of the ultrathin MnO2 nanorods were confirmed by recording the CV curves at various scan rates. The galvanostatic charge-discharge curves at various specific currents confirmed the pseudocapacitance of MnO2. The ultrathin MnO2 nanorods exhibited a superior capacitance of 508 F.g(-1) and an energy density of 35.3 Wh.kg(-1). The MnO2 electrode with optimal properties demonstrated stable long-term cycling performance with 90% retention after 10,000 galvanostatic cycles.10aCotton fabric10aManganese oxide10aUltrafine nanostructures10aWearable supercapacitors1 aSamuel, Edmund1 aJoshi, Bhavana1 aKim, Yongil1 aPark, Chanwoo1 aAldalbahi, Ali1 aEl-Newehy, Mohamed1 aLee, Hae-Seok1 aYoon, Sam, S.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/cotton-fabric-decorated-manganese-oxide-nanorods-supercapacitive-flexible-electrode-wearable
