Activated carbon aerogel as electrode material for coin-type EDLC cell in organic electrolyte

Carbon aerogel (CA) was prepared by a carbonization of resorcinol–formaldehyde (RF) polymer gels, and it was chemically activated with KOH to obtain activated carbon aerogel (ACA) for electrode material for EDLC in organic electrolyte. Coin-type EDLC cells with two symmetrical carbon electrode were assembled using the prepared carbon materials. Electrochemical performance of the carbon electrodes was measured by galvanostatic charge/discharge and cyclic voltammetry methods. Activated carbon aerogel (20.9 F/g) showed much higher specific capacitance than carbon aerogel (7.9 F/g) and commercial activated carbon (8.5 F/g) at a scan rate of 100 mV/s. This indicates that chemical activation with KOH served as an efficient method to improve electrochemical performance of carbon aerogel for EDLC electrode in organic electrolyte. The enhanced electrochemical performance of activated carbon aerogel was attributed to the high effective surface area and the well-developed pore structure with appropriate pore size obtained from activation with KOH.

For comparison, graphene-containing carbon aerogel was prepared using PEI-free graphene oxide (CAG). Graphene-free carbon aerogel (CA) was also prepared. CAPG showed the highest BET surface area (792 m²/g) and the largest pore volume (1.64 cm³/g) with well-developed porous structure. Various electrochemical measurements revealed that CAPG showed high specific capacitance (205 F/g), low equivalent series resistance (0.55 Ω), and superior capacitive behavior. The PEI-modified graphene oxide played an important role in enhancing physicochemical properties and supercapacitive electrochemical performance of CAPG.     

Preparation of carbon aerogel in ambient conditions for electrical double-layer capacitor

Carbon aerogels were prepared by polycondensation of resorcinol with formaldehyde using sodium carbonate as a catalyst in ambient conditions, and they were used as an electrode of electrical double-layer capacitor. The effect of resorcinol to catalyst ratio (R/C ratio) on volume shrinkage, BET surface area, and electrochemical property of carbon aerogels was investigated by changing R/C ratio from 50 to 2000. In order to minimize volume shrinkage, solvent exchange was performed with acetone at 50 °C for 1 day. Volume shrinkage was <2% after 2-day gelation in the absence of CO₂ supercritical drying. BET surface area was strongly dependent on R/C ratio. Carbon aerogel prepared at R/C ratio of 500 showed the highest BET surface area (706 m²/g) with average pore diameter of 10.9 nm. Electrochemical property of carbon aerogels as an electrode of electrical double-layer capacitor was investigated by cyclic voltammetry measurement. Specific capacitance of carbon aerogel prepared at R/C ratio of 500 was found to be 81 F/g in 1 M H₂SO₄ electrolyte at the scan rate of 10 mV/s.

Specific capacitances of activated carbon aerogels were measured by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge/discharge methods in 6 M KOH electrolyte. Among the samples prepared, ACA-K₂CO₃ showed the highest specific capacitance (152 F/g). In order to combine excellent electrochemical performance of activated carbon aerogel with pseudo-capacitive property of manganese oxide, 7 wt% manganese oxide was doped on activated carbon aerogels (Mn/ACA-X) by an incipient wetness impregnation method. Capacitance measurements revealed that Mn/ACA-K₂CO₃ showed the highest specific capacitance (189 F/g). The enhanced capacitance of Mn/ACA-K₂CO₃ was attributed to the fine pore structure and outstanding electric properties of activated carbon aerogel as well as the faradaic redox reactions of manganese oxide.

Electrochemical study and electrodeposition of copper in the hydrophobic tri-n-octylmethylammonium chloride ionic liquid media

The electrodeposition of metallic Copper in binary mixture ionic liquid/organic solvent (tri-n-octylmethylammonium chloride (TOMAC))/chloroform (CHCl₃) was investigated. The electrochemical behavior of Cu(II) in TOMAC/CHCl₃ at glassy carbon working electrode at room temperature was studied by cyclic voltammetry and spectroscopy impedance. The results from the cyclic voltammetry showed that the electrodeposition of metallic Cu in the binary mixture ionic liquid/organic solvent was an irreversible process and was controlled by the diffusion of Cu(II) on a glassy carbon working electrode. The average value of αn_α was found to be 0.23 at 25 °C and the diffusion coefficient (D₀) of Cu(II) was calculated to be 7.12 10^− 9 cm²/s at room temperature. The performance of TOMAC ionic liquid such as internal resistance has been investigated with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs was used to observe that the copper plating was moderately dense and contains fine crystallites with average sizes of about 1 μm at room temperature. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) profile showed that the obtained film was copper.     

Preparation and characterization of metal-doped carbon aerogel for supercapacitor

Carbon aerogel was prepared by polycondensation of resorcinol and formaldehyde using sodium carbonate as a catalyst with a resorcinol to catalyst ratio of 500. Co-doped carbon aerogels were then prepared by an impregnation method with a variation of cobalt content (1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 15 wt.%), and their performance for supercapacitor electrode was investigated by measurement of specific capacitance in 1 M H₂SO₄ electrolyte at a scan rate of 10 mV/s. Among the samples prepared, 7 wt.% Co-doped carbon aerogel showed the highest capacitance (100 F/g) and stable cyclability. The enhanced capacitance of Co-doped carbon aerogel was attributed to the faradaic redox reactions of cobalt oxide. On the basis of this result, 7 wt.% Cu-, Fe-, Mn-, and Zn-doped carbon aerogels were also prepared by an impregnation method for use as a supercapacitor electrode. Among the metal-doped carbon aerogels, Mn-doped carbon aerogel showed the highest capacitance (107 F/g) while Cu- and Fe-doped carbon aerogels exhibited the most stable cyclability.
