Abstract
Exploring infinite resources, green strategy, and inexpensive for producing 2D biocarbon nanosheets is an essential method in renewable energy. This study aims to develop a eutectic salt-induced activation process for the production of porous carbon nanosheets with well-controlled microstructure using varying ZnCl2 molarity levels. The results showed that biocarbon featuring thin nanosheets with 2D structure and a high specific surface area of 1294 m2g−1 could be obtained in eutectic salt ZnCl2 at 0.5 molarity with a specific capacitance reaching 495 Fg−1. In addition, the capacitive properties of the cells decreased when the molarity was increased to 0.7 M, leading to a decline in specific capacitance to 171 Fg−1. Based on these results, the new and low-cost strategy of eutectic salt media provided an effective method of converting guinea grass into highly valuable biocarbon in the field of electrochemical energy storage.
