While pseudocapacitors represent a promising option for electrical energy storage, the performance of the existing ones must be dramatically enhanced to meet today's ever-increasing demands for many emerging applications. Here we report a nanostructured, mixed-valent manganese oxide film that exhibits anomalously high specific capacitance (∼2530 F/g of manganese oxide, measured at 0.61 A/g in a...

Local structure of copper ions in Cu–Cr–Fe mixed metal oxide revealed through in situ high-resolution XANES investigation.

In this work, three different graphene-based materials, namely graphite oxide (GrO), thermally reduced graphite oxide (T-RGrO) and ascorbic acid multi-phase reduced graphene oxide (AMP-RGO), were synthesized and used to produce mixed matrix membranes (MMM) based on Matrimid®5218 for as separation. From the samples produced, a complete set of characterization was performed including XRD, FTIR, T...
