Stretchable Micro-supercapacitors: Introduction
- A substitute to batteries, micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) are energy storage devices that can complement or replace lithium-ion batteries in wearable devices. Micro-supercapacitors have a small footprint, high power density, and the ability to charge and discharge quickly.
- According to studies, when stretchable micro-supercapacitors are fabricated for wearable devices, conventional micro-supercapacitors have a sandwich-like stacked geometry that exhibits poor flexibility, long ion diffusion distances, and a complex integration process when combined with wearable electronics.
- Stretchable micro-supercapacitors (MSCs) with high power density and small size have been intensively researched in recent years. However, to date, the stretchability of the overall device is still limited by the lack of a stretchable electrode material, which results in significant performance degradation, particularly in the highly stretched state.

High Electrochemical Performance of Stretchable Micro-supercapacitors
- Researchers and manufacturers have recently found out a new method of designing stretchable micro-super capacitors capable of maintaining high electrochemical performance and these devices are approximately 200% stretchable.
- The electrode in these high performance supercapacitors are based on the bis (trifluoromethane) sulfonamide lithium salt and poly (vinyl alcohol). The resultant hydrogel is operated with a PVA/H2SO4 electrolyte to deliver an unprecedented level of combined performance such as a large areal capacitance of 44.5 mF cm−2, a power density of 0.04 mW cm−2 at an area energy density of 0.004 mW h cm−2, and excellent stretchability of 200% while retaining 93% of the original capacitance.
- Companies are delivering highly stable performance from these supercapacitors even under extensive stretching, showing a high 92% capacitance retention after 2000 cycles of 100%-strain stretching.
- Major players in the market are proposing architecture that is compatible with laser patterning, which enables rapid fabrication, and reflects a highly practical approach to realize high performance, mechanically robust micro energy storage devices.
High Voltage Output and Exceptional Mechanical Robustness to Offer Lucrative Opportunities
