3D Structural Strengthening Urchin‐Like Cu(OH)₂‐Based Symmetric Supercapacitors with Adjustable Capacitance

Developing advanced three‐dimensional (3D) structural supercapacitors with both high capacity and good mechanical strength remains challenging. Herein, a novel road is reported for fabricating 3D structural strengthening supercapacitors with adjustable capacitance based on urchin‐like Cu(OH) 2 lattice electrodes by bridging 3D printing technology with a facile electroless plating and electro‐oxidation method. As revealed by the results, the 3D‐printed octet‐truss lattice electrode features a high volumetric capacitance of 8.46 F cm −3 at 5 mA cm −3 and superior retention capacity of 68% at 1 A cm −3 . The assembled symmetric supercapacitor with a 70.2% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles possesses a 12.8 Wh kg −1 energy density at a power density of 2110.2 W kg −1 . Additionally, the resulting 3D structural strengthening electrodes can achieve both high compressive strength and toughness of 30 MPa and 264.7 kJ m −3 , respectively, demonstrating high mechanical strength and excellent antideformation capacity. With the proposed strategy, the electrochemical and mechanical properties of these novel 3D structural strengthened supercapacitors can be easily tuned by a simple spatial framework design, fulfilling the increasing demand of highly customized power sources in the space‐constrained microelectronics and astronautic electronics industries.
