The synthesis methods, structural categories, and multipurpose uses of carbon gels, such as aerogels, xerogels, cryogels, and hydrogels, are all well covered in this review. These materials are appropriate for a variety of applications due to their special qualities, which include high surface area, hierarchical porosity, electrical conductivity, and mechanical tunability. Recent developments in green synthesis techniques employing precursors generated from biomass are highlighted, including the creation of hybrid systems that combine metal oxides, graphene, and carbon nanotubes to improve mechanical strength, conductivity, and catalytic activity. A critical analysis of how different drying and carbonization methods affect pore structure, stability, and performance is conducted. Carbon gels' uses in fuel cells, lithium-ion/sodium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, and water treatment are discussed, with an emphasis on how their structural characteristics affect their adsorption and electrochemical properties. The analysis also examines the increasing interest in hydrogels based on graphene and gels made from biomass as environmentally friendly and sustainable substitutes for energy systems. Despite impressive advancements, problems with mechanical robustness, pore structure management, and cost-effective large-scale production still exist. In order to create next-generation carbon gel materials for worldwide energy and environmental solutions, future prospects are examined with a focus on combining green chemistry, functionalization methods, and innovative composite designs.</p>","PeriodicalId":18242,"journal":{"name":"Materials Advances","volume":" 20","pages":" 7153-7206"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2025/ma/d5ma00786k?page=search","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145284193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper introduces an open-source computational framework—GRATEv2 (GRaph-based Analysis of TEM, Version 2)—designed for near-real-time analysis of semi-crystalline, polymeric microstructures; its capabilities are illustrated on poly[<em>N</em>-9′-heptadecanyl-2,7-carbazole-<em>alt</em>-5,5-(4′,7′-di-2-thienyl-2′,1′,3′-benzothiadiazole)] (PCDTBT), a benchmark material in organic photovoltaics. GRATEv2 employs fast, automated image processing algorithms, enabling rapid extraction of structural features like <em>d</em>-spacing, orientation, and crystal shape metrics. Bayesian optimization rapidly identifies the parameters (that are traditionally user-defined) in the approach, reducing the need for manual parameter tuning and thus enhancing reproducibility and usability. Additionally, GRATEv2 is compatible with high-performance computing (HPC) environments, allowing for efficient, large-scale data processing at near real-time speeds. A unique feature of GRATEv2 is a Wasserstein distance-based stopping criterion, which optimizes data collection by determining when further sampling no longer adds statistically significant information. This capability optimizes the amount of time the TEM facility is used while ensuring data adequacy for in-depth analysis.

Moreover, hybridizing multi-walled CNTs with a small amount of single-walled CNTs in a specific composition enabled the fabrication of hybrid cathode materials with sufficient electron conductivity, Na<small><sup>+</sup></small> accessibility, and structural stability, making them suitable for energy storage applications. The proposed architecture of PW materials can effectively suppress irreversible phase transitions at high operating voltages by stabilizing the lattice structure and hindering the formation of undesirable phases, thus improving battery performance. Furthermore, the design of the cathode material presented in this study can effectively enhance the energy density of SIBs while maintaining high C-rate capability and cyclability.</p>","PeriodicalId":18242,"journal":{"name":"Materials Advances","volume":" 19","pages":" 6931-6943"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2025-08-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlepdf/2025/ma/d5ma00698h?page=search","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145184028","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
