Highly rate and cycling stable electrode materials constructed from polyaniline/cellulose nanoporous microspheres

Abstract

Highly efficient electrode materials were constructed from polyaniline/cellulose microspheres (PANI/PA/CM)<italic>via</italic>phytic acid (PA) as “bridge” through hydrogen bonding. The electrodes exhibited excellent cycling stability and high rate capability as a result of the superior affinity of cellulose with the electrolyte and the homogeneous nanoporous architecture, leading to good ion channels.
