Flexible, lightweight electrode for electrochemical capacitor with high surface area and capacitance was successfully prepared based on the electrospun poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) nanofiber web. Electrode was fabricated by three steps. First, PVDF-HFP nanofiber web was formed by electrospinning. Platinum (Pt) thin layer as a current collector was then deposited on the electrospun PVDF-HFP nanofiber web by an electroless plating and followed by deposition of manganese dioxide (MnO2) using a hydrothermal method, finally producing MnO2/Pt/PVDF-HFP nanofiber web electrode. We confirmed formation of MnO2/Pt/PVDF-HFP nanofiber web electrode with desired structure and chemical composition. The galvanic charge-discharge specific capacitance of the flexible MnO2/Pt/PVDF-HFP nanofiber web electrode was 201.4 F/g at current density of 1 mA/cm2. Even after 1000 bending cycles, specific capacitance obtained from cyclic voltammetry of the nanofiber web electrode maintained up to 88.8% of the initial capacitance, implying excellent bending durability of the electrode. Since MnO2/Pt/PVDF-HFP nanofiber web electrode exhibited excellent electrochemical activity and mechanical flexibility, we expect potential applications in flexible, wearable, and stretchable electronic devices.Graphic abstractScheme of fabrication process and surface and cross-section of MnO2/Pt/PVDF-HFP nanofiber web
