Then, using an electrospinning process, they fabricated microscopic fibers from the polymer and carbonized the plastic threads in a furnace. After mixing with a binder and a conductive agent, the material was then dried and assembled into an electric double-layer supercapacitor within a coin-cell type format. When tested in the supercapacitor, the material contained the characteristics of both a double-layer capacitor formed by the arrangement of separated ionic and electronic charges, as well as redox reaction pseudo-capacitance that occurs when the ions are electrochemically absorbed onto surfaces of materials<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-5130 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/behzistdanesh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/pet-300x249.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"249\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Scanning electron microscope image of a material for energy storage made from upcycled plastic bottles<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Although they don\u2019t store as much energy as lithium-ion batteries, these supercapacitors can charge much faster\u2014a good option for many applications. By doping the electrospun fibers prior to carbonization with various chemicals and minerals such as boron, nitrogen, and phosphorous, the team plans to tune the final material to have improved electrical properties. The authors (Arash Mirjalili, Bo Dong, Pedro Pena, Cengiz S.
