Abstract

Secondary batteries have been widely developed and used in various fields, such as large‐scale energy storage, portable electronics, and electric vehicles. Carbon‐based materials have attracted considerable attention due to their abundance, environmental friendliness, tunable structure, and excellent chemical stability. Beyond the commercial carbon for batteries and supercapacitors, many studies focused on advanced and multifunctional carbon with various structures for electrochemical energy storage. This review summarizes the zero‐ to three‐dimensional carbon‐based materials and reviews their various electrochemical applications based on their structural characteristics. The importance of carbon structures and the relationship between materials' structures and electrochemical performance are discussed. Then, the prospects and potential challenges of using advanced carbon to formulate designs and develop novel carbonaceous materials with high electrochemical performance are further discussed.

  • Waste plastic-derived functional carbon materials have garnered significant attention due to their environmental friendliness, high tunability, and excellent chemical stability.

    “Waste plastic-derived functional carbon materials have garnered significant attention from numerous research teams due to their environmental friendliness, high tunability, and excellent chemical stability [121,122] .”

    From Functional carbon materials from waste plastics: synthesis and applications (2025) · cites this paper as [121]

    The Abstract says carbon-based materials have attracted attention because of their environmental friendliness, tunable structure, and chemical stability. It does not identify those materials as waste plastic-derived; a search for “plastic” found no passage establishing that qualifier. The copy provides no page numbers for these passages.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
