The presence of the alkali metal in the selected polymer precursor results in a high specific surface area of 1327 m(2) g(-1). Importantly, 80% of the pore volume is contributed by micropores with pore size ranging from 1-2 nm which is ideal for use as an electrode for supercapacitors. Whereas the rest of the surface area was contributed by a small fraction of mesopores and macropores due to the interconnected structure. The presence of three different types of pores make the material ideal for supercapacitor electrodes. IMPC was tested as an electrode in both aqueous and non-aqueous supercapacitors. All the aqueous measurements were done in 1 M H2SO4 solution with a potential window 1 V. A specific capacitance of 258 F g(-1) was realized at a constant charge-discharge current of 0.5 A g(-1) and it maintained at a value of 150 F g(-1) at 30 A g(-1). A long cycle stability of 90% capacitance retention was observed after 5000 charge-discharge cycles at a current density of 2 A g(-1). At the highest power density 13 600 W kg(-1) the energy density was found to be 3.1 W h kg(-1). Non aqueous performance was tested in the presence of 1 M LiPF6 in ethylene carbonate-di-methyl carbonate with 5 mg active material loading. A specific capacitance of 138 F g(-1) was obtained at a current density of 0.25 A g(-1) and it retained at a value of 100 F g-1 at 10 A g(-1). The material can deliver an energy density of 31 W h kg(-1) at its highest power density of 11 000 W kg(-1) in a two electrode system based on active material loading.</p>1 aPuthusseri, Dhanya1 aAravindan, Vanchiappan1 aMadhavi, Srinivasan1 aOgale, Satishchandra  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/3d-micro-porous-conducting-carbon-beehive-single-step-polymer-carbonization-high-001632nas a2200205   4500008004100000022001400041245012900055210006900184260000800253300001400261490000700275520086900282100002301151700002701174700002501201700002401226700002401250700002501274856012701299       2014                        eng d  a1613-681000aFrom waste paper basket to solid state and Li-HEC ultracapacitor electrodes: a value added journey for shredded office paper0 aFrom waste paper basket to solid state and LiHEC ultracapacitor   cNOV  a4395-44020 v103 a<p>Hydrothermal processing followed by controlled pyrolysis of used white office paper (a globally collectable shredded paper waste) are performed to obtain high surface area carbon with hierarchical pore size distribution.

Na-insertion properties of such indanthrone dye derived disordered graphitic carbon (IDDGC) is evaluated in half-cell assembly (Na/IDDGC).

The extracted material has -Fe2O3 as the major phase with inter-dispersed phases of Ti, Al, and Si oxides. In a half-cell assembly, the phase displayed a reversible capacity (approximate to 697mAhg(-1)) with excellent stability upon cycling. Interestingly, the stability is rendered by the multiphase constitution of the material with the presence of other electrochemically inactive metal oxides, such as Al2O3, SiO2, and Fe2TiO4, which could accommodate the strain and facilitate release during the charge-discharge processes in the electrochemically active maghemite component. We fabricated the full-cell assembly with eco-friendly cathode LiMn2O4 by adjusting the mass loading. Prior to full-cell assembly, an electrochemical pre-lithiation was enforced to overcome the irreversible capacity loss obtained from the anode.
