Supercapacitors can charge and discharge almost instantly, and they hold great potential for energy storage. Now, scientists at the University of California, Riverside (UCR) have figured out how to make components for advanced energy storage devices from sustainable sources in the form of a nanomaterial made from plastic waste. The...
