摘要

Zinc in hybrid supercapacitors (ZHCs) have attracted much attention due to advantages of low-cost, high energy density and safety that will expand the scope of energy storage applications in the future. In this study, fibrous zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitors (FZHCs) were prepared utilizing polypyrrole@stainless steel yarn (PPy@SSY) as the cathode and zinc wire as the anode. Using SSY as the current collector and substrate, PPy@SSY electrodes were fabricated through electropolymerization. Due to the bivalent characteristic of zinc and pseudocapacitve characteristic of PPy, FZHCs exhibit a high energy density of 55.4 Wh kg−1 at 160.0 W kg−1 and a maximum power density of 1600.0 W kg−1 at 19.2 Wh kg−1. Furthermore, FZHC also demonstrates exceptional mechanical stability, with a capacity retention rate of 92.7% after undergoing bending cycles from 0° to 180°. This makes it a promising candidate for widespread application in the field of flexible electronic devices.
