The present investigation describes the addition of iron (Fe) in order to improve the supercapacitive properties of MnO 2 electrodes using galvanostatic mode. These amorphous worm like Fe: MnO 2 electrodes are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and wettability test. The supercapacitive properties of MnO 2 and Fe: MnO 2 electrodes are investigated using cyclic voltammetry, chronopotentiometry and impedance techniques. It is seen that the supercapacitance increases with increase in Fe doping concentration and achieved a maximum of 173 F g ?1 at 2 at% Fe doping. The maximum supercapacitance obtained is 218 F g ?1 for 2 at% Fe: MnO 2 electrode. This hydrous binary oxide exhibited ideal capacitive behavior with high reversibility and high pulse charge–discharge property between ?0.1 and +0.9 V/SCE in 1 M Na 2SO 4 electrolyte indicating a promising electrode material for electrochemical supercapacitors. 相似文献

Commercial application of supercapacitors (SCs) requires high mass loading electrodes simultaneously with high energy density and long cycle life. Herein, we have reported a ternary multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/MnO 2/reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposite for SCs with commercial-level mass loadings. The ternary nanocomposite was synthesized using a facile ultrasound-assisted one-pot method. The symmetric SC fabricated with ternary MWCNT/MnO 2/rGO nanocomposite demonstrated marked enhancement in capacitive performance as compared to those with binary nanocomposites (MnO 2/rGO and MnO 2/MWCNT). The synergistic effect from simultaneous growth of MnO 2 on the graphene and MWCNTs under ultrasonic irradiation resulted in the formation of a porous ternary structure with efficient ion diffusion channels and high electrochemically active surface area. The symmetric SC with commercial-level mass loading electrodes (∼12 mg cm −2) offered a high specific capacitance (314.6 F g −1) and energy density (21.1 W h kg −1 at 150 W kg −1) at a wide operating voltage of 1.5 V. Moreover, the SC exhibits no loss of capacitance after 5000 charge−discharge cycles showcasing excellent cycle life. 相似文献

The capacitive properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with different reduction levels were investigated. GNRs have been synthesized through thermal reduction of oxidized GNRs in the temperature range 100–400 °C. Oxidized GNRs were synthesized by longitudinal unzipping of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) by means of chemical treatments. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy observations showed, that the efficient tube unzipping yielded improved effective surface area without any tube annihilation by the unzipping process of MWCNTs. Electrochemical studies indicated that through unzipping of MWCNTs, specific capacitance increased from 8 to 28 F g −1 at discharge current density of 0.5 A g −1, confirming increased active surface area and increased defect density in the MWCNTs surface. Unzipping of MWCNTs resulted in decreased rate capability of the electrode because of low electrical conductivity due to oxidization during the unzipping process. Thermal reduction of unzipped sample affected both specific capacitance and rate capability of electrodes. The highest specific capacitance of 62 F g −1 at discharge current density of 0.5 A g −1 was obtained for the sample unzipped and thermally annealed at about 150 °C. The amount of oxygen-containing groups was shown to be an important factor influencing the performance of the GNRs. These results make unzipped MWCNTs promising electrode materials for supercapacitor applications. 相似文献

Zr-metal organic frameworks (Zr-MOFs, UIO-66) as a kind of crystalline porous material possess controllable porous structure and strong thermal stability up to 753 K. In this paper, we synthesized Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4, Zr-MOF with high specific surface area (1073 m2 g−1) and Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4@Zr-MOF composite for pseudocapacitor material. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were taken to characterize the structure and morphology of Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4, Zr-MOF, and Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4@Zr-MOF. The porous structure of Zr-MOF favors the utilization of the active material Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4 and interfacial charge transport and provides short diffusion paths for ions, which results in a high specific capacitance. Electrochemical properties are evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge/discharge measurement. A maximum specific capacitance (SC) of 992 F/g was obtained from CV at a scan rate of 5 mVs−1, which is higher than Zr-MOF (∼134 F g−1) and Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4 (∼753 F g−1). Meanwhile, the Ni3(NO3)2(OH)4@Zr-MOF composite electrode exhibits a good cycling stability over 3000 cycles. 相似文献

In this study, manganese oxide (MnO 2) nanoparticles were synthesized by sonochemical reduction of KMnO 4 using polyethylene glycol (PEG) as a reducing agent as well as structure directing agent under room temperature in short duration of time and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis. A supercapacitor device constructed using the ultrasonically-synthesized MnO 2 nanoparticles showed maximum specific capacitance (SC) of 282 Fg −1 in the presence of 1 M Ca(NO 3) 2 as an electrolyte at a current density of 0.5 mA cm −2 in the potential range from 0.0 to 1.0 V and about 78% of specific capacitance was retained even after 1000 cycles indicating its high electrochemical stability. 相似文献

The manganese oxide/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MnO 2/MWNT) composite and the manganese oxide/acetylene black (MnO 2/AB) composite were prepared by translating potassium permanganate into MnO 2 which formed the above composite with residual carbon material using the redox deposition method and carbon as a reducer.
The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, and scanning electron microscope. Electrochemical
properties of both the MnO 2/MWNT and MnO 2/AB electrodes were studied by using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance measurement, and galvanostatic charge/discharge
tests. The results show that the MnO 2/MWNT electrode has better electrochemical capacitance performance than the MnO 2/AB electrode. The charge–discharge test showed the specific capacitance of 182.3 F·g −1 for the MnO 2/MWNT electrode, and the specific capacitance of 127.2 F·g −1 for the MnO 2/AB electrode had obtained, within potential range of 0–1 V at a charge/discharge current density of 200 mA·g −1 in 0.5 mol·L −1 potassium sulfate electrolyte solution in the first cycle. The specific capacitance of both the MnO 2/MWNT and MnO 2/AB electrodes were 141.2 F·g −1 and 78.5 F·g −1 after 1,200 cycles, respectively. The MnO 2/MWNT electrode has better cycling performance. The effect of different morphologies was investigated for both MnO 2/MWNT and MnO 2/AB composites. 相似文献

Graphite nanosheets (GNs) doped with N, Fe, or Ni were synthesized by pyrolysis of metal tetrapyridinoporphyrazine (MPTpz, M=Fe 2+, and Ni 2+) and a mixture of MPTpzs in a chemical vapor deposition furnace. The products obtained were characterized by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The magnetic properties of the GNs obtained were investigated at room temperature using a vibrating sample magnetometer with an applied field of −10 000-10 000 Gs. The results show the GNs obtained are terrace-like and ultra-thin, with very high aspect ratio. Fe, Ni and N atoms have been doped to the GNs successfully. There are two types of N atom that are introduced into pure carbon systems: pyrinidic and graphitic N atoms. The GNs obtained exhibit ferromagnetic behavior at room temperature. Sample S1, obtained by pyrolysis of a mixture of MPTpzs (M=Fe 2+ and Ni 2+), have the highest coercivity force. The saturation magnetization ( Ms), remanent magnetization ( Mr), and coercivity ( Hc) values of sample S1 are 24.51 emu g −1, 3.95 emu g −1, and 207.34 Gs, respectively. 相似文献

The partial coverage of manganese oxide (MnO 2) particles was achieved on the surfaces of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) through a facile hydrothermal process.
These particles were demonstrated to be alpha-manganese dioxide (α-MnO 2) nanocrystallites, and exhibited the appearance of the whisker-shaped crystals with the length of 80–100 nm. In such a configuration,
the uncovered CNTs in the nanocomposite acted as a good conductive pathway and the whisker-shaped MnO 2 nanocrystallites efficiently increased the contact of the electrolyte with the active materials. Thus, the highest specific
capacitance of 550 F g −1 was achieved using the resulting nanocomposites as the supercapacitor electrode. In addition, the enhancement of the capacity
retention was observed, with the nanocomposite losing only 10% of the maximum capacity after 1,500 cycles. 相似文献

In the work, short multi-walled carbon nanotubes (S-CNTs) were synthesized by chopping conventional μm-long multi-walled carbon nanotubes (L-CNTs) under ultrasonication in H 2SO 4/HNO 3 mixed acids. A comparative electrochemical investigation performed in 6 M KOH solution demonstrated that a specific capacitance (SC) of ca. 14.6 μF cm −2 was delivered by the S-CNTs with the specific surface area (SSA) of 207 m 2 g −1, much larger than that of ca. 10.1 μF cm −2 for the L-CNTs with the SSA of 223 m 2 g −1, the reason for which was that S-CNTs with two open ends, due to good ion penetrability, provided more entrances for electrolyte ions to access the inner surface easily through their shorter inner pathway so as to enhance their SSA utilization and geometric SC. The surface structure disruption of S-CNTs, owing to ultrasonication and oxidation during chopping process, deteriorated their electronic conductivity and resulted in an inferior power property in contrast to L-CNTs. 相似文献

Ultrahigh-aspect-ratio V 2O 5 nanowires were successfully prepared using [VO(O 2) 2(OH 2)] − as the starting material by a template-free hydrothermal route without the addition of organic surfactant or inorganic ions. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Brunauer–Emmet–Teller (BET), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and galvanostatic charge–discharge (GCD). The results revealed that the peroxovanadium (V) complexes can be easily transformed to V 2O 5 nanowires by this hydrothermal route. The uniform nanowires were with width about 50 nm and length about dozens of micron. The BET analysis showed the V 2O 5 nanowires had a high specific surface area of 25.6 m 2 g −1. The synthesized V 2O 5 nanowires performed a high capacitance of 351 F g −1 when used as supercapacitor electrode in 1 mol L −1 LiNO 3. 相似文献

In present investigation MnO 2 thin films have been prepared by potentiodynamic (PD), potentiostatic (PS) and galvanostatic (GS) modes of electrodeposition. The effects of different modes on structural, surface morphological and supercapacitive properties of MnO 2 thin films have been investigated. Formation of amorphous phase of MnO 2 by all three modes is confirmed from X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. Significant change in the surface morphologies of MnO 2 thin films due to different modes has been observed. The supercapacitive properties of MnO 2 thin films have been studied in 1 M Na 2SO 4 electrolyte. The maximum supercapacitance obtained for potentiodynamic, potentiostatic and galvanostatic modes is 237, 196 and 184 F g −1, respectively. Additionally charge-discharge and impedance of MnO 2 thin films have been investigated. 相似文献

Uniform and single-crystalline Mn 3O 4 nano-spheres were synthesized by cathodic electrodeposition at high temperature (80 °C) and low current density (0.25 mA cm −1) on steel electrode. Further the annealed samples were characterized for their structural and morphological properties by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) studies. TEM and SEM images showed that particles have spherical shapes and the average diameter size was about 50 nm. Formation of Mn 3O 4 compound was confirmed from FTIR studies. The XRD pattern showed that the Mn 3O 4 exhibit tetragonal hausmannite structure. The results of N 2 adsorption-desorption analysis indicated that Mn 3O 4 nano-sphere has BET surface area of about 177.6 m 2 g −1 and average pore diameters of 3 and 4 nm. The possible formation mechanism of Mn 3O 4 nanostructures has been discussed. The supercapacitive properties of Mn 3O 4 sample in 0.5 M Na 2SO 4 electrolyte showed maximum supercapacitance of 235.4 Fg −1 at scan rate 10 mV s −1. Coulumbic efficiency could be kept about 90% during 1000 cycles at 10 mV s −1. 相似文献

Single-crystalline α-MnO 2 nanorods have been successfully synthesized by a novel hydrothermal method based on the redox reactions between the permanganate anion MnO 4- and H 2O in mixture containing KMnO 4 and HNO 3. The products have been characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET). The results prove that the grain size of α-MnO 2 nanorods with the surface area ∼95.2 m 2 g −1 is homogeneous with diameters ranging from 10 to 20 nm. The electrochemical property of the material shows that compared with the commercial electrolytic manganese dioxide (EMD), the discharge capacity of the as-prepared α-MnO 2 nanorods is increased by 70.4%, 104.1% and 135.7% at different constant currents of 50, 250 and 500 mA g −1, respectively. 相似文献

Predominant few-layer graphene (FLG) sheets of high electrical conductivity have been synthesized by a multi-step intercalation and reduction method. The electrical conductivity of the as-synthesized FLG is measured to be ∼3.2 × 10 4 S m −1, comparable to that of pristine graphite. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and Raman analysis reveal that the as-synthesized FLG sheets have large areas with single and double layers. The specific capacitance of 180 F g −1 is obtained for the FLG in a 1 M Na 2SO 4 aqueous electrolyte by integrating the cyclic voltammogram. The good capacitive behavior of the FLG is very promising for the application for next-generation high-performance electrochemical supercapacitors. 相似文献

Carbon coated MnO x-Ni foam electrodes were successfully prepared using a combined process of hydrogel reaction followed by high-temperature pyrolysis under air or Ar gas conditions. The prepared samples were analyzed by various characterization tools. To evaluate the performances of the carbon coated MnO x-Ni foam electrodes as supercapacitors, cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge–discharge, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cycle stability were also carried out. The carbon coated MnO x-Ni foam electrodes displayed supercapacitive behavior in 1.0 M KOH with a high specific capacitance value of 354.6 F g −1 at 10 mV s −1. The electrode also exhibited remarkable cycle stability. This research provides a valuable and effective approach to enhance the performance of materials applied as supercapacitors. 相似文献

Three activated carbons (ACs) for the electrodes of supercapacitor were prepared from cationic starch using KOH, ZnCl 2 and ZnCl 2/CO 2 activation. The BET surface area, pore volume and pore size distribution of the ACs were evaluated using density functional theory method, based on N 2 adsorption isotherms at 77 K. The surface morphology was characterized with SEM. Their electrochemical performance in prototype capacitors was determined by galvanostatic charge/discharge characteristics and cyclic voltammetry, and compared with that of a commercial AC, which was especially prepared for use in supercapacitors. The KOH-activated starch AC presented higher BET surface area (3332 m 2 g −1) and larger pore volume (1.585 cm 3 g −1) than those of the others, and had a different surface morphology. When used for the electrodes of supercapacitors, it exhibited excellent capacitance characteristics in 30 wt% KOH aqueous electrolytes and showed a high specific capacitance of 238 F g −1 at 370 mA g −1, which was nearly twice that of the commercial AC. 相似文献

AWO 4 (A = Ca, Sr) was prepared from metal salts [Ca(NO 3) 2·4H 2O or Sr(NO 3) 2], Na 2WO 4·2H 2O and different moles of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) in water by cyclic microwave irradiation. The structure of AWO 4 was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed the presence of nanoparticles in clusters with different morphologies; spheres, peaches with notches, dumb-bells and bundles, influenced by CTAB. Six Raman vibrational peaks of scheelite structure were detected at 908, 835, 793, 399, 332 and 210 cm −1 for CaWO 4 and 917, 833, 795, 372, 336 and 192 cm −1 for SrWO 4, which are assigned as ν1(A g), ν3(B g), ν3(E g), ν4(B g), ν2(A g) and νf.r.(A g), respectively. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra provided the evidence of W-O stretching vibration in [WO 4] 2− tetrahedrons at 793 cm −1 for CaWO 4 and 807 cm −1 for SrWO 4. The peaks of photoluminescence (PL) spectra were at 428-434 nm for CaWO 4, and 447-451 nm for SrWO 4. 相似文献

Nanocrystalline SnO 2 thin films were deposited by simple and inexpensive chemical route. The films were characterized for their structural, morphological, wettability and electrochemical properties using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy techniques (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), contact angle measurement, and cyclic voltammetry techniques. The XRD study revealed the deposited films were nanocrystalline with tetragonal rutile structure of SnO 2. The FT-IR studies confirmed the formation of SnO 2 with the characteristic vibrational mode of Sn-O. The SEM studies showed formation of loosely connected agglomerates with average size of 5-10 nm as observed from TEM studies. The surface wettability showed the hydrophilic nature of SnO 2 thin film (water contact angle 9°). The SnO 2 showed a maximum specific capacitance of 66 F g −1 in 0.5 Na 2SO 4 electrolyte at 10 mV s −1 scan rate. 相似文献

Magnetic Compton profiles (MCP) have been measured in the [100], [110] and [001] directions on the single crystals of La 2−2xSr 1+2xMn 2O 7 ( x=0.30, 0.35 and 0.42) at 10 K. The occupation numbers in t2g and two eg type orbitals ( x2− y2 and 3 z2− r2) of Mn-3 d state are evaluated from the line-shape analysis of MCP's in the [001] direction by using theoretical profiles derived from the ab initio calculations for (MnO 6) 8−cluster. It has been found that the eg state is dominated by the x2− y2 type orbital at every hole concentration, x, and the 3 z2− r2 type orbital population decreases with increasing x. From the result, the connections of eg orbital state with the electron correlation effect, exchange interactions, lattice distortion and electronic inhomogeneity are discussed. 相似文献

The LiFe 0.9Mg 0.1PO 4/C powder of pure olivine phase can be prepared with the duplex process of spray pyrolysis synthesis (at 450 °C) and subsequent heat treatment (at 700 °C for 2, 4 and 8 h). From scanning electron microscopy observation with corresponding elemental mapping images of iron, phosphorous and magnesium, it could be found that the LiFe 0.9Mg 0.1PO 4 powders are covered with fine pyrolyzed carbon. Raman spectra indicate that the phase of carbon with higher electronic conductive phase is predominant when prolonged subsequent heat treatment is carried out. The carbon coatings on the LiFe 0.9Mg 0.1PO 4 surface can improve the conductivity of the LiFe 0.9Mg 0.1PO 4 powder (3.8×10 −5 S cm −1) to about a factor of ∼10 4 higher than the conductivity of LiFePO 4. The stability and cycle life of a charge/discharge cycle test of lithium ion secondary batteries are also enhanced. The results indicate that the LiFe 0.9Mg 0.1PO 4 powder, prepared at a pyrolysis temperature of 450 °C and with post-heat-treatment at 700 °C for 8 h, exhibits a specific initial discharge capacity of about 132 mA h g −1 at C/10 rate, 105 mA h g −1 at 1C, and 87 mA h g −1 at 5C. 相似文献
