Summary: The research on electrode materials for supercapacitors has mainly focused on cathode materials, resulting in little work on anode materials. This hinders the improvement of energy density in supercapacitors. This study aimed to develop a high-performance and low-cost anode material for supercapacitors. Fe3O4 was synthesized using a hydrothermal method, and Fe3O4/rGO nanocomposites were prepared by treating Fe3O4 with graphene oxide. The Fe3O4/rGO nanocomposites exhibited a higher specific capacitance of 571.2 F g(-1) at 1 A g(-1), compared to pure Fe3O4 (214.7 F g(-1)). By assembling Fe3O4/rGO//MnO2 asymmetric supercapacitors, a device with an energy density of 95.1 Wh kg(-1) at a power density of 2881 W kg(-1) was achieved. After 10,000 cycles at 10 A g(-1), the ASC retained 87.2% of its original capacitance, demonstrating that Fe3O4/rGO nanocomposites are ideal anode materials for high-performance supercapacitors.

Summary: This study investigates the relationship between the morphology of PMMA monopolymers and PMMA-PHEMA copolymers with the expected nature of surfactant-free microemulsions (SFMEs) before polymerization. It is found that previously mesostructured, surfactant-free mixtures can produce porous polymers of different morphologies, while unstructured, oil-rich regions lead to solid, transparent polymers without nanostructured morphologies. Additionally, a surfactant-based reference system shows similar phase behavior and polymer morphologies as the comparable surfactant-free system, indicating the importance of the hydrotropic behavior of HEMA in this system.
