TL;DR: Supercapacitors are able to store and deliver energy at relatively high rates (beyond those accessible with batteries) because the mechanism of energy storage is simple charge-separation (as in conventional capacitors) as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: An overview of the current knowledge on mineral-organic associations can be found in this article, where the authors identify key questions and future research needs, as well as a survey of the existing research work.
Abstract: Minerals and organic matter (OM) may form intricate associations via myriad interactions. In soils, the associations of OM with mineral surfaces are mainly investigated because of their role in determining the long-term retention of OM. OM “must decay in order to release the energy and nutrients that drive live processes all over the planet” ( Janzen, 2006 ). Thus, the processes and mechanisms that retain OM in soil are a central concern to very different branches of environmental research. An agronomist may want to synchronize periods of high nutrient and energy release with the growth stages of a crop. An environmental chemist may wish to either immobilize an organic soil contaminant or enhance its decomposition into less harmful metabolites, while climate scientists need to understand the processes that mediate the production of potent greenhouse gases from decomposing OM. Associations of OM with pedogenic minerals (henceforth termed mineral–organic associations (MOAs)) are known to be key controls in these and many other processes. Here we strive to present an overview of the current knowledge on MOAs and identify key questions and future research needs.

TL;DR: The behavior of colloid systems is governed primarily by their large interfacial area as mentioned in this paper, which is defined as the boundary region between the adjoining bulk phases that comprise the colloid system.
Abstract: The behavior of colloid systems is governed primarily by their large interfacial area. The interface is defined as the boundary region between the adjoining bulk phases that comprise the colloid system. When one of the phases is a gas or a vapor, the term surface is commonly used for the boundary region. The foundation for thermodynamic treatment of surfaces was established in the last century by Gibbs, who published a considerable contribution to the field in 1878. His work still forms the basis of modern thermodynamics (Gibbs, 1928).

TL;DR: The theory of rate processes was introduced by Glasstone, Laidler and Eyring as discussed by the authors, who used the mass action law of Guldberg and Waage and the exponential equation of Arrhenius.
Abstract: PHYSICAL chemistry started with van t' Hoff's discovery (1884) of the reaction isochore, which, fundamentally, stood on the same ground as the gas theory of Maxwell and Boltzmann. In the field of reaction rates the ideas of this period produced the mass action law of Guldberg and Waage and the exponential equation of Arrhenius.
