  title = {Dehydrated Sucrose Nanoparticles as Spacers for Graphene-Ionic Liquid Supercapacitor Electrodes},
  abstract = { The addition of dehydrated sucrose nano particles increases the gravimetric capacitance of electrochemical double-layer capacitor electrodes produced via the evaporative consolidation of graphene oxide-water-ionic liquid gels by more than two-fold. Dehydrated sucrose adsorbs onto graphene oxide and serves as a spacer, preventing the graphene oxide from restacking during solvent evaporation. Despite 61 wt \% of the solids being electrochemically inactive dehydrated sucrose nanoparticles, the best electrodes achieved an energy density of similar to 13.3 Wh/kg, accounting for the total mass of all electrode components. },
