Abstract

Abstract : To fabricate the all bio-material supercapacitor, both the electrode (APBC) and the gel electrolyte (BC–H3 PO4 were obtained from BC through different methods, which displays an improved specific capacitance of 289 mF cm −2 and higher capacitance retention compared with the PVA-electrolyte supercapacitor.) Abstract : An all-biomaterial originated film supercapacitor has been successfully fabricated for the first time based on a unique three-dimensional bacterial cellulose (BC) derived electrode and a novel BC-based gel electrolyte. The obtained supercapacitor displays an excellent specific capacitance of 289 mF cm −2 and an improved solution resistance of 7 Ω.
