Background:

Flexible all-solid-state supercapacitors are essential for portable electronics like foldable phones and wearables.
Polyaniline (PANI) is a promising pseudocapacitive material for supercapacitor electrodes.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop flexible all-solid-state supercapacitors using polyaniline nanotube arrays.
To evaluate the electrochemical performance, flexibility, and stability of the fabricated supercapacitors.

Main Methods:

Polyaniline (PANI) nanotube arrays were synthesized using template electrodeposition.
Structural characterization was performed using SEM, FT-IR, and XPS.
Electrochemical performance was assessed via cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge tests.

Main Results:

The PANI nanotube film served directly as a flexible supercapacitor electrode.
A maximum areal capacitance of 237.5 mF cm⁻² was achieved at 10 mV s⁻¹.
The supercapacitor retained 95.2% capacitance after 2000 cycles and demonstrated excellent flexibility, powering an LED.

Conclusions:

The developed PANI nanotube-based supercapacitors exhibit high performance, excellent flexibility, and superior cycling stability.
These devices are suitable for practical micropower supply applications in flexible electronics.
The template electrodeposition method offers a viable route for fabricating advanced energy storage devices.
