Emerging Two–Dimensional Intercalation Pseudocapacitive Electrodes for Supercapacitors

Abstract: The growing need for efficient energy storage has spurred advancements in supercapacitors (SCs), aiming to offer high power and energy density simultaneously. While SCs offer longer cycles and higher power density values, their low energy densities limit practical applications. In response, pseudocapacitive materials have emerged, leveraging reversible Faradaic reactions at or near the surface for enhanced energy storage. This approach surpasses the constraints of the electrical double layer in SCs and the mass transfer constraints of batteries. Progress in asymmetric supercapacitors and high mass loading has improved energy density values, yet maintaining high mass loading without compromising power density remains a hurdle. Advancements in pseudocapacitance through intercalation during charging/discharging processes, especially in layered structures like graphite, graphene, transition metal oxides (TMOs) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), MXenes, and metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven significant. The intercalated species induce reversible or irreversible structural changes, contributing to the physicochemical characteristics of the electrode materials. Exploring the intercalation mechanism in bulk two‐dimensional (2D) materials reveals distinct differences that enhance our understanding and improve electrochemical properties for superior energy storage. Finally, an in‐depth exploration of the intercalation pseudocapacitance in 2D materials such as TMDCs and MXenes underscores their significance, setting a benchmark for future electrochemical studies in the subsequent advancement of SCs research.
