A crosslinked membrane based on renewable, degradable and environmentally friendly soybean protein isolate was formed by solution casting method. A series of gel polymer electrolytes were prepared with the crosslinked membranes saturated with 1 mol·L−1 Li2SO4. The solid-state electric double-layer capacitors were fabricated with the prepared gel polymer electrolytes and activated carbon electrodes. The optimized solid-state supercapacitor delivered a single electrode specific capacitance of 115.17 F·g−1 at a current density of 1.0 A·g−1, which was higher than the supercapacitor assembled with the commercial separator in 1 mol·L−1 Li2SO4. The solid-state supercapacitor exhibited an outstanding cycling stability, indicating that the gel polymer electrolyte based on the crosslinked soybean protein isolate membrane could be a promising separator for a solid-state supercapacitor.

Roles of gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs), ion reservoir and binder-like effects, are suggested for enhanced rate capability and high durability of supercapacitors at 3.4 V, surpassing the conventional liquid SCs.
