Functionalized melanin for enhanced energy storage in aqueous and ionic liquid electrolytes by Noah Al-Shamery, Florian Heppner, Carsten Dosche, Simon Morgenschweis, Thomas Bredow, Gunther Wittstock, Pooi See Lee

“…Mel-NO2 shows improved water-solubility, cycling stability, improved capacity at current densities over 0.1 A g−1 (19.5 mA h g−1 at 0.2 A g−1), and good conductivity in ionic liquid electrolyte devices. Post-density functional theory calculations using a higher-level theoretical approach (meta-GGA level) compared to previous theoretical melanin investigations show the electron withdrawing nitro groups causing a reduced HOMO-LUMO gap potentially being a reason for the improved electrochemical properties.…”
