Can nanomaterials improve the performance of energy storage devices?

The development of nanomaterials and their related processing into electrodes and devices can improve the performance and/or development of the existing energy storage systems. We provide a perspective on recent progress in the application of nanomaterials in energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors and batteries.

Can nanomaterials revolutionize energy research?

Nanomaterials have the potential to revolutionize energy research in several ways, including more efficient energy conversion and storage, as well as enabling new technologies. One of the most exciting roles for nanomaterials, especially 2D materials, is in the fields of catalysis and energy storage.

Can nanomaterials be used in energy-storage systems?

Current bottlenecks for practical applications of nanomaterials in energy-storage systems include their low loading density and high surface reactivity toward electrolytes. Innovative designs that creatively embed nanomaterials within electrode secondary particles, limiting direct surface exposure to electrolytes, are desired.

What are the limitations of nanomaterials in energy storage devices?

The limitations of nanomaterials in energy storage devices are related to their high surface area—which causes parasitic reactions with the electrolyte, especially during the first cycle, known as the first cycle irreversibility—as well as their agglomeration.

Can inorganic nanomaterials drive innovation?

Inorganic nanomaterials exhibit unique properties like high surface area, conductivity, and stability, making them promising for energy storage, conversion, and transmission. By analyzing recent research and advancements, the review emphasizes the potential of these materials to drive innovation and overcome existing challenges.

How does nanostructuring affect energy storage?

This review takes a holistic approach to energy storage, considering battery materials that exhibit bulk redox reactions and supercapacitor materials that store charge owing to the surface processes together, because nanostructuring often leads to erasing boundaries between these two energy storage solutions.
