Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/carbon microelectromechanical systems (C-MEMS) composites were fabricated as electrode materials for on-chip supercapacitors. By using photolithography and pyrolysis process, 3-D C-MEMS architectures prepared. The iron catalyst particles conformally coated on the by electrostatic spray deposition (ESD) CNTs synthesized surfaces of catalytic CVD method. CNT/C-MEMS exhibited higher specific capacitance than C-MEMS. Furthermore, with more homogeneous showed better...

Recently, the nanofiber materials derived from natural polymers instead of petroleum-based by electrospinning have aroused a great deal interests. The lignocellulosic biomass could not be electrospun into directly due to its poor solubility. Here, sugarcane bagasse (SCB) was subjected homogeneous esterification with different anhydrides, and corresponding esterified products (SCB-A) were obtained. It found that bead-free uniform nanofibers obtained via even when mass fraction acetylated SCB...
