Electrospun TiC nano‐felt with fiber diameters of ≈ 130 nm can be conformally transformed into carbide‐derived carbon (CDC) after heat treatment in chlorine, report Hao Fong, Yuri Gogotsi and co‐workers. The TiC‐CDC nano‐felts have been studied as flexible and binder‐free electrodes for supercapacitors, and the results have demonstrated a high gravimetric capacitance and a superior power handling capability compared to conventional activated carbon electrodes. on p. 423
