What Role Does Increased Surface Area Play in Energy Storage?
Energy storage devices, such as batteries and supercapacitors, benefit significantly from increased surface area. Nanostructured materials used in these devices offer higher capacity and faster charge-discharge cycles. The large surface area of nanomaterials provides more active sites for the storage and transfer of electrons, improving the overall performance and efficiency of the energy storage systems. For instance, graphene-based materials are being explored for their potential in creating high-capacity batteries.
