Abstract

Current trending research demand extended for bearable energy storage has directed to extensive research on biodegradable and biocompatible materials for super-capacitors, batteries, and fuel cells. Overall research attempt investigates recent progress in eco-friendly energy storage technologies, focusing on biodegradable polymers, carbon-based materials, and green electrolytes that enhance electro-chemical properties. The integration of bio-based components improves conductivity, capacitance, and mechanical flexibility, making them suitable for applications in wearable electronics and medical devices. Key innovations include the synthesis of transient super-capacitor electrodes using enzymatically cleavable conductive polymers, and biocompatible electrolytes derived from chitosan-glycerol ion gels. These materials demonstrate promising energy densities, flexibility, and controlled degradation profiles, making them suitable for transient electronics, implantable medical devices, and green IoT systems. Furthermore, the end-of-life recyclability and soil/water degradability of these systems address global concerns regarding electronic waste. However, significant challenges persist in achieving high energy density while maintaining biodegradability. Future research will emphasize molecular engineering, hybrid materials, and sustainable manufacturing to develop well-organized and environmentally friendly energy storage resolutions.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Molecular Structure is dedicated to the publication of full-length articles and review papers, providing important new structural information on all types of chemical species including: • Stable and unstable molecules in all types of environments (vapour, molecular beam, liquid, solution, liquid crystal, solid state, matrix-isolated, surface-absorbed etc.) • Chemical intermediates • Molecules in excited states • Biological molecules • Polymers. The methods used may include any combination of spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic techniques, for example: • Infrared spectroscopy (mid, far, near) • Raman spectroscopy and non-linear Raman methods (CARS, etc.) • Electronic absorption spectroscopy • Optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism • Fluorescence and phosphorescence techniques • Electron spectroscopies (PES, XPS), EXAFS, etc. • Microwave spectroscopy • Electron diffraction • NMR and ESR spectroscopies • Mössbauer spectroscopy • X-ray crystallography • Charge Density Analyses • Computational Studies (supplementing experimental methods) We encourage publications combining theoretical and experimental approaches. The structural insights gained by the studies should be correlated with the properties, activity and/ or reactivity of the molecule under investigation and the relevance of this molecule and its implications should be discussed.
