摘要

Electrospinning is a well-established fiber fabrication technique distinguished by its cost-effectiveness, scalability potential, and exceptional processing versatility that allows to tailormade the final properties (e.g. surface wettability, porosity, surface area, mechanical properties and rugosity) of envisaged platform. The demand for advanced electrochemical platforms has increased, positioning electrospinning as a particularly attractive strategy for the development of future systems for electrochemical devices. Electrospun materials for electrochemical applications such as batteries, fuel cells, sensors and capacitors/supercapacitors allow the production of unique complex platforms, where their hierarchical fibrous architectures enable enhanced mass transport, charge transfer, and interfacial activity. This review provides a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of the basic principles of electrospinning technology comprising the different strategies to obtain fibers at micro/nano scale, morphologies, and chemical nature. The electrochemical application of electrospun systems comprising electroactive and/or dielectric materials is also reviewed in detail. Moreover, it addresses the future outlook of electrospinning technology regarding electrochemical devices and its challenges.
