Abstract
Crumpled graphene fiber is a promising structure to be a graphene precursor to enhance the production and mechanical properties of various carbon fibers. The primary goal of the present work is to study the crumpled graphene of different morphologies using molecular dynamics simulations to find the effect of the structural peculiarities on the mechanical properties, such as the tensile strength, elastic modulus, and deformation characteristics. Mono- and poly-disperse structures are considered under uniaxial tension along two different axes. As it is found, both structures are isotropic and stress–strain curves for tension along different directions are very similar. Young’s modulus of crumpled graphene is close, about 50 and 80 GPa; however, the strength of the polydisperse structure is bigger at the elastic regime. While a monodisperse structure can in-elastically deform until high tensile strength of 90 GPa, structure analysis showed that polydisperse crumpled graphene fiber pores appeared two times faster than the monodisperse ones.

Abstract
Graphene-based materials in the form of fibres, fabrics, films, and composite materials are the most widely investigated research domains because of their remarkable physicochemical and thermomechanical properties. In this era of scientific advancement, graphene has built the foundation of a new horizon of possibilities and received tremendous research focus in several application areas such as aerospace, energy, transportation, healthcare, agriculture, wastewater management, and wearable technology. Although graphene has been found to provide exceptional results in every application field, a massive proportion of research is still underway to configure required parameters to ensure the best possible outcomes from graphene-based materials. Until now, several review articles have been published to summarise the excellence of graphene and its derivatives, which focused mainly on a single application area of graphene. However, no single review is found to comprehensively study most used fabrication processes of graphene-based materials including their diversified and potential application areas. To address this genuine gap and ensure wider support for the upcoming research and investigations of this excellent material, this review aims to provide a snapshot of most used fabrication methods of graphene-based materials in the form of pure and composite fibres, graphene-based composite materials conjugated with polymers, and fibres. This study also provides a clear perspective of large-scale production feasibility and application areas of graphene-based materials in all forms.

Abstract
With the rapid propagation of flexible electronic devices, flexible lithium-ion batteries (FLIBs) are emerging as the most promising energy supplier among all of the energy storage devices owing to their high energy and power densities with good cycling stability. As a key component of FLIBs, to date, researchers have tried to develop newly designed high-performance electrochemically and mechanically stable pliable electrodes. To synthesize better quality flexible electrodes, based on high conductivity and mechanical strength of carbonaceous materials and metals, several research studies have been conducted. Despite both materials-based electrodes demonstrating excellent electrochemical and mechanical performances in the laboratory experimental process, they cannot meet the expected demands of stable flexible electrodes with high energy density. After all, various significant issues associated with them need to be overcome, for instance, poor electrochemical performance, the rapid decay of the electrode architecture during deformation, and complicated as well as costly production processes thus limiting their expansive applications. Herein, the recent progression in the exploration of carbonaceous materials and metals based flexible electrode materials are summarized and discussed, with special focus on determining their relative electrochemical performance and structural stability based on recent advancement. Major factors for the future advancement of FLIBs in this field are also discussed.

Abstract
Flexible and stretchable energy-storage batteries and supercapacitors suitable for wearable electronics are at the forefront of the emerging field of intelligent textiles. In this context, the work here presented reports on the development of a symmetrical wire-based supercapacitor able to use the wearer’s sweat as the electrolyte. The inner and outer electrodes consists of a carbon-based thread functionalized with a conductive polymer (polypyrrole) which improves the electrochemical performances of the supercapacitor. The inner electrode is coated with electrospun cellulose acetate fibres, as the separator, and the outer electrode is twisted around it. The electrochemical performances of carbon-based supercapacitors were analyzed using a simulated sweat solution and displayed a specific capacitance of 2.3 F.g−1, an energy of 386.5 mWh.kg−1 and a power density of 46.4 kW.kg−1. Moreover, cycle stability and bendability studies were performed. Such energy conversion device has exhibited a stable electrochemical performance under mechanical deformation, over than 1000 cycles, which make it attractive for wearable electronics. Finally, four devices were tested by combining two supercapacitors in series with two in parallel demonstrating the ability to power a LED.

Abstract
Flexible supercapacitors based on fiber shaped electrodes exhibit great potential for practical applications in smart fabrics owing to their light weight, good flexibility, and excellent weaveability. Herein, manganosite/carbonized cellulose nanocrystal/reduced graphene oxide (MnO/CNC/rGO) ternary composite fibers were fabricated from liquid crystal spinning dopes through a continuous one-process method. The assembly of CNC and manganese oxide nanoparticles in GO aqueous dispersion not only prevents GO nanosheets from restacking, but also ensures a uniform intercalation of nanoparticles. After a chemical and thermal reduction, the carbonized CNC contributes for additional electrical double layer capacitance while the MnO for faradaic pseudocapacitance. A fiber supercapacitor was assembled by arranging two MnO/CNC/rGO ternary composite fibers coated with PVA/H3PO4 gel electrolyte in parallel and it exhibited an energy density of 0.14 mWh cm-3 at 4 mW cm-3 and the maximum power density of 40 mW cm-3. The fiber supercapacitor also demonstrated a good cycling stability (retains 82% of its initial capacitance after 6000 cycles) and bending robustness. This assembly approach is facile and scalable. More importantly the homogeneous dispersion of the nanoparticles in the ternary composite fibers shows promise for the future spreading of wearable electronic products.

Abstract
Constructing high capacitance active materials and three-dimensional (3D) conductive networks inside textile yarn frames is a promising strategy to synthesize yarn supercapacitor electrodes. In this study, growing NiCo2S4@Ni-Co layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanotube arrays on Au-metalized cotton yarns yields a novel yarn supercapacitor electrode material. The resulting yarn electrode possesses numerous merits, including high electrical conductivity from NiCo2S4 and Au-metalized cotton yarns, high capacitance of Ni-Co LDH nanosheets, and the 3D hierarchical electrode structure. The unique electrode structure leads to excellent electrochemical properties including high capacitance (5680 mF cm-2), excellent rate performance, and stable cycling performance. A two-ply symmetric yarn supercapacitor assembled from the NiCo2S4/Ni-Co LDH/Au/cotton yarn electrode reaches an areal energy density of 3.5 μW h cm-2.

Abstract
With the advantages of being lightweight, flexible, and wearable, wire-shaped supercapacitors have received tremendous attention in wearable and portable power sources in recent years. Considering the demands for large-scale applications, it is necessary to explore a facile and convenient preparation approach for wire-shaped supercapacitors. Herein, we reported a simple approach to fabricate wire-shaped electrodes by a dipping method, which possessed a nitric acid-activated graphite fiber core and an activated carbon-coating layer structure. Parallel and symmetric all-solid-state wire-shaped supercapacitors (PWSCs) based on the electrodes were fabricated. The as-fabricated PWSC showed high energy density (6.60 W h/kg, 8.08 mW h/cm, and 1 mV/s) and power density (253 mW/kg, 0.31 mW/cm, and 100 mV/s) and excellent flexibility. Furthermore, this wire-shaped supercapacitor may bring broader application prospects for energy storage devices in future wearable electronic areas.
