  • Patent: Method for Preparation of Carbon Dot-Infused Gel Polymer Electrolyte for Supercapacitor

    This invention introduces a novel method for preparing a carbon dot-infused gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) to enhance supercapacitor performance. The process involves synthesizing graphitic carbon nitride-derived carbon dots (gCN-CDs) and incorporating them into a hydroxyethyl cellulose-based gel polymer matrix. The resulting GPE, when integrated with activated carbon and graphene electrodes, significantly improves energy storage capabilities. The developed supercapacitor demonstrates a high specific capacitance (52 F/g for activated carbon, 15 F/g for graphene), along with excellent energy efficiency, stability, and cycling performance.
