Iron-based hybrid supercapacitors combine the high power density of supercapacitors (>10 kW/kg) with the energy density of batteries (~100 Wh/kg). Recent studies using Fe3O4 nanoparticles as electrode materials have achieved specific capacitances >500 F/g at scan rates <10 mV/s while maintaining excellent rate capability (~80% retention at 1 A/g). The incorporation conductive polymers like PEDOT:PSS has further enhanced conductivity (>100 S/cm), reducing internal resistance by ~40%.
Electrolyte engineering plays a crucial role in optimizing hybrid supercapacitors’ performance Aqueous electrolytes containing FeSO4/FeCl3 redox couples enable fast charge transfer kinetics (<1 ms response time), making them ideal for high-power applications Additionally novel gel polymer electrolytes provide mechanical flexibility while maintaining ionic conductivities >20 mS/cm enabling wearable energy storage devices
