Among the materials being investigated for energy storage applications, carbon fibre stands out as a particularly promising candidate [6, 7, 8]. Carbon fiber, traditionally utilized in the aerospace, automotive, and sports equipment industries, possesses unique structural characteristics that enable the development of multifunctional materials.
These materials can simultaneously serve as both the structural component and the energy storage medium [9, 10, 11]. As a result, conventional heavy batteries can be either replaced by or integrated into carbon fiber-based batteries, allowing them to fulfill both structural and energy storage roles.
Exploring new electrode materials is of vital importance for improving the properties of energy storage devices. Carbon fibers have attracted significant research attention to be used as potential electrode materials for energy storage due to their extraordinary properties.
While these carbon materials offer high electrical conductivity and surface area, they lack the mechanical integrity, lightweight construction, corrosion resistance, and scalable manufacturability required for structural energy storage systems [, , ].
