Abstract
Pumpkin is employed for the first time successfully as a renewable and low-cost precursor to prepare porous carbon with excellent performance. This approach has many advantages for production on a large scale. The synthetic material exhibits a high specific capacitance of 419 F g−1 as well as high energy density of 22.1 W h kg−1 in an aqueous electrolyte. Thus, the prepared material holds great promise for applications in electrochemical energy-storage devices. More information can be found in the Full Paper by Dan Xiao et al. on page 1828 in Issue 12, 2016 (DOI: 10.1002/asia.201600303).
