Molecular chain bonding synthesis of nanoporous, flexible and conductive polymer composite with outstanding performance for supercapacitors

Abstract

Molecular chain bonding is, for the first time, developed to synthesize a nanoporous, flexible and conductive polymer composite by converting a single polymer phase matrix to two phases of interpenetrating polymer networks. Significantly, the porous polymer composite not only presents ultra-high mechanical properties, durability and conductive stability, but also enhances the capacitance by 7-fold.
