Introduction

Energy storage technologies are increasingly important for the development of efficient and sustainable energy systems. Functional two-dimensional (2D) nanostructured materials offer distinctive structural, electrochemical and mechanical properties that make them promising materials for advanced energy storage devices.

Energy Storage Applications of Functional 2D Nanostructured Materials provides a structured introduction to functional 2D nanomaterials and their applications in electrochemical energy storage. The book covers supercapacitor fundamentals and examines graphene, MXenes, metal-organic frameworks, covalent organic frameworks and transition metal oxides. It also discusses functional 2D nanocomposites for charge storage, fundamental electrochemical principles, material characterization and practical considerations in energy storage technologies. The final chapter addresses current limitations, emerging opportunities and future applications.
