Abstract

Unique graphene oxide-wrapped organic dipotassium terephthalate hollow microrods were synthesised using an abundant and renewable organic resource. They exhibit enhanced potassium storage compared to bulk K₂TP, which can be ascribed to the fast K⁺ ion transfer kinetics, high electronic conductivity and short diffusion distance.
