Functional Hydrogels for Next-Generation Batteries and Supercapacitors
Open accessAbstract
Functional hydrogels are an attractive material platform for energy-storage technologies. Thus, the development of hydrogels with enhanced physicochemical properties (e.g., improved mechanical strength, flexibility, and charge transport) offers new opportunities for next-generation batteries and supercapacitors. Armed with a deeper understanding of gelation chemistry, researchers have made significant strides toward fabricating hydrogels that are stimulus responsive, self-healing, and highly stretchable. In this short review, we highlight how hydrogels have been integrated into batteries and supercapacitors and provide exciting examples that demonstrate the versatility of hydrogels; namely, tailorable architectures, conductive nanostructures, 3D frameworks, and multifunctionalities. It is anticipated that creative and combinatorial approaches used in the design of functional hydrogels will continue to yield materials with great potential in the field of energy storage.

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.
