Synthesis of Ag/NiO Honeycomb Structured Nanoarrays as the Electrode Material for High Performance Asymmetric Supercapacitor Devices.

ABSTRACT: Metallic silver nickel oxide honeycomb nanoarrays were synthesized via a surfactant-assisted hydrothermal route. The crystal structure of the Ag/NiO nanoarrays was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed the valance state of the nickel, oxygen, and metallic silver. The morphological studies and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy revealed the honeycomb structured nanoarrays and the elemental distribution of the prepared sample, respectively. The three-electrode measurements showed that the Ag/NiO nanoarray is a suitable electrode material for supercapacitor applications, which delivers the maximum specific capacity of 824 C g^-1 at a specific current of 2.5 A g^-1. An Ag/NiO positive electrode-based asymmetric device was fabricated and tested. The asymmetric device yielded a high specific cell capacity of 204 C g^-1 at a specific current of 2.5 A g^-1 as well as a maximum energy density of 63.75 W h kg^-1 at a power density of 2812.5 W kg^-1. These results are comparable to those of (NiMH) metal hydride batteries.

Ni(OH)? and NiO Based Composites: Battery Type Electrode Materials for Hybrid Supercapacitor Devices.

Project description:Nanocomposites of Ni(OH)? or NiO have successfully been used in electrodes in the last five years, but they have been falsely presented as pseudocapacitive electrodes for electrochemical capacitors and hybrid devices. Indeed, these nickel oxide or hydroxide electrodes are pure battery-type electrodes which store charges through faradaic processes as can be shown by cyclic voltammograms or constant current galvanostatic charge/discharge plots. Despite this misunderstanding, such electrodes can be of interest as positive electrodes in hybrid supercapacitors operating under KOH electrolyte, together with an activated carbon-negative electrode. This study indicates the requirements for the implementation of Ni(OH)?-based electrodes in hybrid designs and the improvements that are necessary in order to increase the energy and power densities of such devices. Mass loading is the key parameter which must be above 10 mg·cm−2 to correctly evaluate the performance of Ni(OH)? or NiO-based nanocomposite electrodes and provide gravimetric capacity values. With such loadings, rate capability, capacity, cycling ability, energy and power densities can be accurately evaluated. Among the 80 papers analyzed in this study, there are indications that such nanocomposite electrode can successfully improve the performance of standard Ni(OH)? (+)//6 M KOH//activated carbon (−) hybrid supercapacitor.

Novel biomass-derived smoke-like carbon as a supercapacitor electrode material.

Project description:In this present work, smoke-like carbon was successfully fabricated from a bio-waste fungal substrate crude polysaccharide for the first time. The as-prepared products possess smoke-like structures, ultra-high specific surface area (S BET: 2160 m2 g-1) and a high content of micropores (microporous surface area of 60%, with a nanopore size of 0.70 nm), which can increase the specific capacitance, representing a wonderful structure for electrochemical energy storage devices. The as-prepared sample displayed an excellent specific capacitance of 152 F g-1 at 5 A g-1 in the three-electrode configuration and exhibited maximal densities of 6.8-10.2 W h kg-1 under power outputs of 253.4-24.3 kW kg-1. We believe that this work demonstrates a simple, green and low-cost route by using agricultural residue to prepare applicable carbon materials for use in energy storage devices.

Vanadium oxide nanorods as an electrode material for solid state supercapacitor.

Project description:The electrochemical properties of metal oxides are very attractive and fascinating in general, making them a potential candidate for supercapacitor application. Vanadium oxide is of particular interest because it possesses a variety of valence states and is also cost effective with low toxicity and a wide voltage window. In the present study, vanadium oxide nanorods were synthesized using a modified sol-gel technique at low temperature. Surface morphology and crystallinity studies were carried out by using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. To the best of our knowledge, the as-prepared nanorods were tested with magnesium ion based polymer gel electrolyte for the first time. The prepared supercapacitor cell exhibits high capacitance values of the order of ~ 141.8 F g-1 with power density of ~ 2.3 kW kg-1 and energy density of ~ 19.1 Wh kg-1. The cells show excellent rate capability and good cycling stability.

NiO-Microflower Formed by Nanowire-weaving Nanosheets with Interconnected Ni-network Decoration as Supercapacitor Electrode.

Project description:We propose a 'weaving' evolution mechanism, by systematically investigating the products obtained in controlled experiments, to demonstrate the formation of Ni-based 'microflowers' which consists of multiple characteristic dimensions, in which the three dimensional (3D) NiO 'microflower' is constructed by a two-dimensional (2D) nanosheet framework that is derived from weaving one-dimensional (1D) nanowires. We found such unique nanostructures are conducive for the generation of an electrically conductive Ni-network on the nanosheet surface after being exposed to a reducing atmosphere. Our study offers a promising strategy to address the intrinsic issue of poor electrical conductivity for NiO-based materials with significant enhancement of utilization of NiO active materials, leading to a remarkable improvement in the performance of the Ni-NiO microflower based supercapacitor. The optimized Ni-NiO microflower material showed a mass specific capacitance of 1,828 F g(-1), and an energy density of 15.9 Wh kg(-1) at a current density of 0.5 A g(-1). This research not only contributes to understanding the formation mechanism of such 'microflower' structures but also offers a promising route to advance NiO based supercapacitor given their ease of synthesis, low cost, and long-term stability.

Supercapacitor Performance of NiO, NiO-MWCNT, and NiO-Fe-MWCNT Composites.

Project description:The NiO-CNT and NiO-Fe-CNT composites that have been prepared from waste high density polyethylene plastic and their carbon nanotube (CNT) quality-dependent supercapacitance tuning have been reported here. Multiwalled CNT (MWCNT) formation has been confirmed from TEM and Raman spectra with an ID/IG ratio of 0.77, which stands for high graphitization. The specific surface area (SSA) of MWCNTs in the NiO-Fe-CNT composite was 87.8 m2/g, while in the NiO-CNT composite, it was 25 m2/g. NiO-Fe-CNT displayed higher specific capacitance and energy density (1360 Fg-1 and 1180 W h kg-1) than NiO-CNT (1250 Fg-1 and 1000 W h kg-1), which may be due to the presence of higher-quality MWCNTs in the NiO-Fe-CNT composite. NiO-Fe-CNT displayed higher contributions of electric double-layer capacitor (59%) behavior compared to NiO-CNT (38%) and represented a hybrid supercapacitor. NiO-Fe-CNT also displayed a capacitive retention of 96% after 1000 charge-discharge cycles. Furthermore, studies in acidic electrolytes revealed higher performance of NiO-Fe-CNT than NiO-CNT, displaying specific capacitances of NiO-Fe-CNT to be 1147 Fg-1 in 2 M H2SO4 and 943 Fg-1 in 2 M HCl. It has been qualitatively explored that the quality of CNTs, SSA, and quantum confinement effects in the composites may be the factors responsible for the performance difference in NiO-Fe-CNT and NiO-CNT. The present work is geared toward the low-cost fabrication of high-quality CNT composites for supercapacitors and energy storage applications. The present work also contributes quantitatively to the understanding of CNT quality as an important parameter for the performance of CNT-composite-based supercapacitors.

Surface Characteristic Effect of Ag/TiO2 Nanoarray Composite Structure on Supercapacitor Electrode Properties.

Project description:Ag-ion-modified titanium nanotube (Ag/TiO2-NT) arrays were designed and fabricated as the electrode material of supercapacitors for electrochemical energy storage. TiO2 nanotube (NT) arrays were prepared by electrochemical anodic oxidation and then treated by Ag metal vapor vacuum arc (MEVVA) implantation. The Ag amount was controlled via adjusting ion implantation parameters. The morphology, crystallinity, and electrochemistry properties of as-obtained Ag/TiO2-NT electrodes were distinguished based on various characterizations. Compared with different doses of Ag/TiO2-NTs, the electrode with the dose of 5.0 × 1017 ions·cm-2 exhibited much higher electrode capacity and greatly enhanced activity in comparison to the pure TiO2-NTs. The modified electrode showed a high capacitance of 9324.6 mF·cm-3 (86.9 mF·g, 1.2 mF·cm-2), energy density of 82.8 μWh·cm-3 (0.8 μWh·g, 0.0103 μWh·cm-2), and power density of 161.0 mW·cm-3 (150.4 μW·g, 2.00 μW·cm-2) at the current density of 0.05 mA. Therefore, Ag/TiO2-NTs could act as a feasible electrode material of supercapacitors.

New Limits for Stability of Supercapacitor Electrode Material Based on Graphene Derivative.

Project description:Supercapacitors offer a promising alternative to batteries, especially due to their excellent power density and fast charging rate capability. However, the cycling stability and material synthesis reproducibility need to be significantly improved to enhance the reliability and durability of supercapacitors in practical applications. Graphene acid (GA) is a conductive graphene derivative dispersible in water that can be prepared on a large scale from fluorographene. Here, we report a synthesis protocol with high reproducibility for preparing GA. The charging/discharging rate stability and cycling stability of GA were tested in a two-electrode cell with a sulfuric acid electrolyte. The rate stability test revealed that GA could be repeatedly measured at current densities ranging from 1 to 20 A g-1 without any capacitance loss. The cycling stability experiment showed that even after 60,000 cycles, the material kept 95.3% of its specific capacitance at a high current density of 3 A g-1. The findings suggested that covalent graphene derivatives are lightweight electrode materials suitable for developing supercapacitors with extremely high durability.

Pseudocapacitance electrode and asymmetric supercapacitor based on biomass juglone/activated carbon composites.

Project description:A novel electrode material incorporating renewable biomass-derived juglone biomolecules with commercial activated carbon (AC) granules has been through simple ultrasonic dispersion and dissolution-recrystallization and was found to exhibit good electrochemical performance. The juglone biomolecules are prepared by an ultrasound-assisted extraction method from abandoned walnut peel, which decreases pollution and increases economic efficiency. Through the dissolution-recrystallization process with AC, a hierarchical structure with nanosized juglone particles was obtained, and the AC particles worked as scaffolding to strengthen the slight biomolecules, thus expanding the active sites and effectively reducing the dissolution of the active materials. The pseudocapacitance fading mechanism was investigated by ex situ FTIR measurement and the porous structure ensures that the composite electrode has an enhanced specific capacitance of 248 F g-1 compared to 172.8 and 62.5 F g-1 for the respective AC and juglone samples. Besides, the excellent cyclic stability (retained 75% after 3000 charge-discharge cycles) was demonstrated. The highest area-specific capacitance of the composites was 1300 mF cm-2. An asymmetric supercapacitor based on this composite electrode was assembled with an AC electrode as the counter electrode and exhibited good cyclic performance at a voltage of 1.2 V (retained 77% after 3000 charge-discharge cycles), which provides a high energy density of 12 W h kg-1 at a power density of 0.18 kW kg-1 and a high power density of 2 kW kg-1 at an energy density of 9 W h kg-1. This work explores the application of biomolecule-based composites in energy storage devices and provides a potential strategy for constructing environmentally friendly electrodes.

Tremella-like NiO microspheres embedded with fish-scale-like polypyrrole for high-performance asymmetric supercapacitor.

Project description:Tremella-like NiO microspheres embedded with fish-scale-like polypyrrole (PPy) were synthesized by polymerizing pyrrole (Py) onto uniform NiO nanosheets. PPy has a fish-scale-like appearance with a thickness of approximately 10 nm, and is connected to the NiO nanosheet surface. NiO/PPy microspheres (diameter of ∼4 μm) were applied as the electrode material in a supercapacitor. The NiO/PPy-6 obtained under a NiO : Py molar ratio of 6 shows a high specific capacitance of 3648.6 F g-1 at 3 A g-1 and good rate capability (1783 F g-1 at a high current density of 30 A g-1). An asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) was fabricated using NiO/PPy-6 and activated carbon (AC) as the positive electrode and the negative electrode, respectively. NiO/PPy-6//AC can achieve a high specific capacitance of 937.5 F g-1 at 3 A g-1 and a high energy density of 333.3 W h kg-1 at a power density of 2399.99 W kg-1. The excellent supercapacitor performance is assigned to the combined contribution of both components and the unique heterostructure in NiO/PPy-6.

Snowflake-Like Dendritic CoNi Alloy-rGO Nanocomposite as a Cathode Electrode Material for an All-Solid-State Flexible Asymmetric High-Performance Supercapacitor Device.

Project description:Flexible all-solid-state supercapacitors having high mechanical stability and foldable features are crucial to meet the growing demands for a large number of portable electronic devices such as wearable electronics, displays, touch screens, detectors, etc. Here, we report the fabrication of such a flexible all-solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor device by using a nanocomposite composed of a snowflake-like dendritic CoNi alloy and reduced graphene oxide ((CoNiD)60-rGO40) as the positive electrode and pure rGO as the negative electrode for the first time. In this device, a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) gel containing 3 M KOH and 0.1 M K4[Fe(CN)6] was used as the electrolyte cum separator. This supercapacitor device offers a high energy density value of 52.8 Wh kg-1 at a power density of 2000 W kg-1. The values of these two key performance parameters are superior to the many commercially available supercapacitors and reported values in the literature. In addition, this device also exhibits retention of ∼95% of its initial specific capacitance value after 4000 cycles at a current density of 2.5 A g-1, displaying its high cycling stability. This supercapacitor is so flexible that no mechanical deformation occurs even after bending at different angles and folding up to 180°, and its specific capacitance value practically remains unaffected when the device was twisted at different bending angles. This flexible all-solid-state asymmetric supercapacitor device can power a light-emitting diode (LED) and demonstrates its promise to meet the practical applications in energy storage technology.
