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-001901nas a2200181   4500008004100000022001400041245012200055210006900177260007100246300001400317490000700331520116600338100001701504700002301521700002001544700002501564856013001589       2014                        eng d  a0887-062400aEnhanced capacitance retention in a supercapacitor made of carbon from sugarcane bagasse by hydrothermal pretreatment0 aEnhanced capacitance retention in a supercapacitor made of carbo  a1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USAbAMER CHEMICAL SOCcJUN  a4233-42400 v283 a<p>A unique morphology-controlling protocol involving hydrothermal preprocessing before pyrolysis is presented to convert cellulosic waste in the form of sugarcane bagasse into three-dimensional (3D) interconnected, conducting, and high surface area carbon nanochannels. The large buffer spaces in such a porous carbon sample yield impressive electrochemical capacitance (C-sp) of 280 F/g at a current density of 1 A/g (and 275 F/g at 5 mV/s), with 72% retention even at a very high current density of 20 A/g. In contrast, the non-hydrothermally treated sample exhibits a C-sp value of 180 F/g at 1 A/g and only 52% retention at 20 A/g. The much better performance of the hydrothermally preprocessed bagasse-derived carbon (BHAC) can be ascribed to the solvent retention inside the buffer spaces created, negating the diffusional limitations of pore inaccessibility at higher scan rates. The BHAC has a high surface area of 1260 m(2)/g with a fairly good (11 wt %) concentration of oxygen functionality. The material renders a good energy density of Wh/kg at a power density of 3.5 kW/kg and shows good cyclability of 90% after 1000 charge/discharge cycles.</p>1 aWahid, Malik1 aPuthusseri, Dhanya1 aPhase, Deodatta1 aOgale, Satishchandra  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/enhanced-capacitance-retention-supercapacitor-made-carbon-sugarcane-bagasse-hydrothermal-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.

The energy density of the cell is similar to 65 W h kg(-1) which is significantly higher than that achievable with commercially available activated carbon (similar to 36 W h kg(-1)) and a symmetric supercapacitor based on the same MOF-derived carbon (MOF-DC similar to 20 W h kg(-1)).

The process involves 3D silica nanoparticle templating of the pulse flour(s) followed by their double pyrolysis. The detailed experiments are performed on gram flour (derived from chickpeas) without any in situ/ex situ addition of dopants. The N-doped porous carbon thus generated shows remarkable electrocatalytic activity towards ORR in the alkaline medium. The oxygen reduction on this material follows the desired 4-electron transfer mechanism involving the direct reduction pathway. Additionally, the synthesized carbon catalyst also exhibits good electrochemical stability and fuel tolerance.

On the other hand, the performance stability depends on various factors governed by the specific constitution of the electrode. Here we show that molecularly engineered low-dimensional hybrid perovskites can work as excellent anode materials for alkali-ion batteries. We measure a high reversible capacity of 646 mA h g(-1) at 100 mA g(-1) with good stability tested up to 250 cycles for the benzidine mediated lead iodide based 1D system. An ex situ analysis of the electrodes reveals that the storage primarily occurs via the Li-x(or Na-x)Pb alloying/de-alloying process. We anticipate that these results open a new direction for the use of low-dimensional hybrid perovskites for energy storage applications.</span></p>10aGeneration10aInorganic-Organic Hybrid10aLead Iodide10alithiation-intramolecular electrophilic reaction10aNa-Air Battery10aNegative Electrodes10aOrganometal Halide perovskites10aPB10aSequential Deposition10aSolar-cells1 aTathavadekar, Mukta1 aKrishnamurthy, Shrreya1 aBanerjee, Aparna1 aNagane, Satyawan1 aGawli, Yogesh1 aSuryawanshi, Anil1 aBhat, Suresh1 aPuthusseri, Dhanya1 aMohite, Aditya, D.1 aOgale, Satishchandra  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/low-dimensional-hybrid-perovskites-high-performance-anodes-alkali-ion-batteries02343nas a2200217   4500008004100000245013000041210006900171260000800240300002800248490000600276520153100282100002101813700001801834700002201852700002601874700002301900700001801923700002501941700003001966856012901996       2018                        eng d00aHigh and reversible lithium ion storage in self-exfoliated triazole-triformyl phloroglucinol-basedcovalent organic nanosheets0 aHigh and reversible lithium ion storage in selfexfoliated triazo  cMAR  aArticle Number: 17021700 v83 aCovalent organic framework (COF) can grow into self-exfoliated nanosheets. Their graphene/graphite resembling microtexture and nanostructure suits electrochemical applications. Here, covalent organic nanosheets (CON) with nanopores lined with triazole and phloroglucinol units, neither of which binds lithium strongly, and its potential as an anode in Li-ion battery are presented. Their fibrous texture enables facile amalgamation as a coin-cell anode, which exhibits exceptionally high specific capacity of approximate to 720 mA h g(-1) (@100 mA g(-1)). Its capacity is retained even after 1000 cycles. Increasing the current density from 100 mA g(-1) to 1 A g(-1) causes the specific capacity to drop only by 20%, which is the lowest among all high-performing anodic COFs. The majority of the lithium insertion follows an ultrafast diffusion-controlled intercalation (diffusion coefficient, D-Li(+) = 5.48 x 10(-11) cm(2) s(-1)). The absence of strong Li-framework bonds in the density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure supports this reversible intercalation. The discrete monomer of the CON shows a specific capacity of only 140 mA h g(-1) @50 mA g(-1) and no sign of lithium intercalation reveals the crucial role played by the polymeric structure of the CON in this intercalation-assisted conductivity. The potentials mapped using DFT suggest a substantial electronic driving-force for the lithium intercalation. The findings underscore the potential of the designer CON as anode material for Li-ion batteries.1 aHaldar, Sattwick1 aRoy, Kingshuk1 aNandi, Shyamapada1 aChakraborty, Debanjan1 aPuthusseri, Dhanya1 aGawli, Yogesh1 aOgale, Satishchandra1 aVaidhyanathan, Ramanathan  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/high-and-reversible-lithium-ion-storage-self-exfoliated-triazole-triformyl-phloroglucinol
