The demand for advanced energy devices such as high-performance
batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, electrolyzers, and flexible/wearable
devices is increasing rapidly. To meet such demand, high-performance and
stable materials that could be used as active materials in these devices are
much needed. This book focuses on the use of hydrogels in such emerging
applications.
The main objective of this book is to provide current, state-of-the-art
development in hydrogel-based materials, their applications in energy, and
their future challenges. This book covers the entire spectrum of hydrogels for
their applications in a range of energy devices in terms of materials, various
synthetic approaches, architectural aspects, design and technology of energy
devices, and challenges. This book covers the fundamentals of hydrogels,
various composites of hydrogels, design concepts, different technologies, and
applications in the diverse energy area. All chapters are written by experts
in these areas around the world, making this a suitable textbook for students
and providing new guidelines to researchers and industries working in
these areas.
This book includes topics such as various approaches to synthesizing
hydrogels, their characterizations, and emerging applications in the
energy area. Fundamentals of energy devices, working principles, and
their challenges are also covered. This book will provide new directions to
scientists, researchers, and students to better understand hydrogel-based
materials and their emerging applications in energy.
