Research progress on the application of biomass-based carbon aerogels in supercapacitors
Biomass-based carbon aerogels with three-dimensional porous structure,derived from biomass as a precursor,possess large specific surface area,high porosity,ultra-low density,and good electrical conductivity,making them new renewable green materials with a wide range of sources.Researchers use the excellent properties of biomass-based carbon aerogels and composite them with metal compounds,polymers,graphene and heteroatoms to prepare biodegradable bio-based carbon aerogels for use in supercapacitors.In this paper,the preparation method and preparation process of biomass-based carbon aerogels were reviewed in detail,the application of biomass-based carbon aerogel electrode composite in supercapacitors was summarized,and its future development trend was prospected.
