Plug and play synthesis of an organic/inorganic hybrid electrode with adjustable porosity: redox-active organosilica confined in mesoporous carbon

Abstract

The construction of advanced materials for electrochemistry (e.g. supercapacitors) using organic, redox-active molecules like benzoquinone is attractive due to their defined properties and high reversibility. The preparation of a unique nanohybrid electrode was achieved via a novel silsesquioxane sol–gel precursor within minutes and at low cost, basically allowing for mass-production.
