Summary: Due to their high security and versatility, hydrogels have gained great interest in sustainable applications such as wastewater treatment and energy storage. However, their poor adsorption capacity and low conductivity have limited their sustainable application. In this study, nanocomposite hydrogels (PAAm/CS-EDTA/GO) were prepared by crosslinking polymerization of ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA)-modified chitosan (CS) and graphene oxide (GO). The addition of lithium chloride (LiCl) improved the performance of the hydrogel by providing anti-freezing and anti-dehydration properties and enhancing the conductivity. The supercapacitor assembled using PAAm/CS-EDTA/GO/Li hydrogel electrolyte showed high capacitance and temperature tolerance.

Summary: The evolution of smart life requires microscale energy storage devices with high power and energy density to integrate IoT devices with sustainable power generators. Pseudocapacitors are considered efficient energy storage devices due to their longer cyclability and high-power density compared to Li-ion batteries, but there are difficulties in patterning microscale electrodes using conventional methods. A one-step fabrication method of micro-supercapacitors was developed through the in situ formation of Co metals and reduced graphene oxides in a one-pot laser scribing process, resulting in a Co/rGO MSC with four times higher capacitance than rGO MSC.
