Current insights and future prospects of graphene aerogel-enhanced supercapacitors: A systematic review.

Supercapacitors present a compelling alternative to conventional batteries, offering rapid energy storage and high power density. Despite their advantages, they typically fall short in energy density compared to traditional batteries, primarily due to limitations in electrode materials. Graphene Aerogels (GA) have emerged as a promising solution to enhance supercapacitor performance because of their unique properties, such as high surface area and excellent conductivity.

Effects of Plasma Treated Alumina Nanoparticles on Breakdown Strength, Partial Discharge Resistance, and Thermophysical Properties of Mineral Oil-Based Nanofluids.

Mineral oil has been chosen as an insulating liquid in power transformers due to its superior characteristics, such as being an effective insulation medium and a great cooling agent. Meanwhile, the performance of mineral oil as an insulation liquid can be further enhanced by dispersing nanoparticles into the mineral oil, and this composition is called nanofluids. However, the incorporation of nanoparticles into the mineral oil conventionally causes the nanoparticles to agglomerate and settle as sediment in the base fluid, thereby limiting the improvement of the insulation properties.
