Biodegradable ionic liquids in energy storage: Molecular insights into hydration-controlled performance in graphene-based supercapacitors
Using classical molecular dynamics, this work investigates graphene-based supercapacitors employing amino acid ionic liquids ([emim] + paired with methioninate, phenylalaninate, or serinate) with controlled hydration (0–40 %). Analysis of electric double layer structure, ion distribution, and potential profiles suggests that moderate water content (10–20 %) tends to enhance capacitance and energy density by improving interfacial ordering without significant voltage loss. Phenylalanine-based electrolytes deliver the highest energy storage, while serine offers stability across hydration levels and methionine shows pronounced hydration-driven gains. The biodegradability of these ionic liquids underscores their promise for sustainable, high-performance energy storage devices.
期刊介绍:
Chemical Physics Letters has an open access mirror journal, Chemical Physics Letters: X, sharing the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review.
Chemical Physics Letters publishes brief reports on molecules, interfaces, condensed phases, nanomaterials and nanostructures, polymers, biomolecular systems, and energy conversion and storage.
Criteria for publication are quality, urgency and impact. Further, experimental results reported in the journal have direct relevance for theory, and theoretical developments or non-routine computations relate directly to experiment. Manuscripts must satisfy these criteria and should not be minor extensions of previous work.
