Retaining the specific capacitance under electrochemical stress: A pH-induced self-protection mechanism for manganese dioxide pseudocapacitive electrodes

In this study, we report the enhanced electrochemical performance of a MnO2 electrode modified with a pH-sensitive co-polymer, activated at acidic pH, and designed to counteract MnO2 degradation in aqueous aqueous pseudocapacitors. The conformation of this polymer is controlled by the local pH chang...
