Journal Article
Qian, H., Diao, H., Shirshova, N., Greenhalgh, E., Steinke, J., Shaffer, M., & Bismarck, A. (2013). Activation of structural carbon fibres for potential applications in multifunctional structural supercapacitors. Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, 395, 241-248. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jcis.2012.12.015

The feasibility of modifying conventional structural carbon fibres via activation has been studied to create fibres, which can be used simultaneously as electrode and reinforcement in structural composite supercapacitors. Both physical and chemical a... Read More about Activation of structural carbon fibres for potential applications in multifunctional structural supercapacitors.

Structural composite supercapacitors (2012)
Journal Article
Shirshova, N., Qian, H., Shaffer, M., Steinke, J., Greenhalgh, E., Curtis, P., …Bismarck, A. (2013). Structural composite supercapacitors. Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing, 46, 96-107. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.compositesa.2012.10.007

This paper presents the development of multifunctional materials that perform a structural role whilst simultaneously storing electrical energy as a supercapacitor. Two structural carbon fibre woven electrodes were separated by a woven glass fibre la... Read More about Structural composite supercapacitors.
