Conventional soilless growing media, such as perlite, are mined from nonrenewable resources and can only be disposed of in landfills after limited use. There is a need to investigate novel, sustainable growing media adapted from waste or engineered to be reused over multiple cycles.

Water-processed, aqueous electrolyte supercapacitors are demonstrated incorporating an alternating copolymer of a functionalized 3,4-propylenedioxythiophene unit with a 2,2′-bis(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) unit (PE2) into carbon nanotube textiles. The side chains functionalizing PE2 allow the solubility to be tuned from the organic soluble precurso...
