5, 7, 12, 14-pentacenetetrone (PT), polycyclic quinone derivatives, are rich in carbonyl, which were investigated as a novel organic electrode material for supercapacitors. PT with aconjugated system, is a flat molecule, generating strong-interactions between molecules. PT molecules were uniformly fixed on conductive reduced graphene oxide (rGO) through-interaction by one-step solvothermal method, forming a three-dimensional cross-linked PT@rGO hydrogel. This composite structure was conducive to reducing the charge transfer resistance and promoting the Faraday reaction of electrode, which achieved the superposition of electric double-layer capacitance and pseudocapacitance. Appropriate organic molecular loading can effectively improve electrochemical performance. The optimal PT@rGO electrode material displayed the specific capacitance of 433.2 F gat 5 mV swith an excellent rate capability in 1 mol lHSOelectrolyte. Finally, the fully pseudocapacitive asymmetric supercapacitor has been assembled by using PT@rGO as positive electrode and benz[a]anthracene-7,12-quinone (BAQ) modified rGO(BAQ/rGO)as negative electrode, which exhibited the good energy storage performance in a cell voltage of 1.8 V.

This review article focuses on the potential of cobalt oxide composites with conducting polymers, particularly polypyrrole (PPy) and polyaniline (PANI), as advanced electrode materials for supercapacitors, batteries, and supercapatteries. Cobalt oxide, known for its high theoretical capacitance, is limited by poor conductivity and structural degradation during cycling. However, the integration of PPy and PANI has been proven to enhance the electrochemical performance through improved conductivity, increased pseudocapacitive effects, and enhanced structural integrity.

Two-dimensional (2D) electrically conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as viable candidates for active electrode materials in supercapacitors due to their high electrical conductivity, high specific surface area, and intrinsic redox-active sites. Despite their promising electrochemical performance, their pseudocapacitive behavior via fast and reversible charge transfer reactions remains yet to be fully exploited. Here, we investigate the electrochemical energy storage mechanism of Cu(HHTATP) (HHTATP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexahydroxy-1,5,9-triaminotriphenylene), a 2D conductive MOF featuring characteristic redox-active pendant aromatic amines.

As a high-performance energy storage device consisting of a battery-type anode and a capacitor-type cathode, hybrid lithium-ion capacitors (HLICs) combine the advantages of high energy density of batteries and high power density of capacitors. However, the imbalance in electrochemical kinetics between the battery-type anode and the capacitor-type cathode hinders the further development of HLICs. Fully conjugated covalent organic frameworks have great potential as electrode materials for HLICs due to the designability of their structure.

Vanadium nitride (VN) is a promising electrode material for sodium-ion storage due to its multivalent states and high electrical conductivity. However, its electrochemical performance has not been fully explored and the storage mechanism remains to be clarified up to date. Here, the possibility of VN/carbon hybrid nanorods synthesized from a metal-organic framework for ultrafast and durable sodium-ion storage is demonstrated.
