3D N,O-Codoped Egg-Box-Like Carbons with Tuned Channels for High Areal Capacitance Supercapacitors.

ABSTRACT: Functional carbonaceous materials for supercapacitors (SCs) without using acid for post-treatment remain a substantial challenge. In this paper, we present a less harmful strategy for preparing three-dimensional (3D) N,O-codoped egg-box-like carbons (EBCs). The as-prepared EBCs with opened pores provide plentiful channels for ion fast transport, ensure the effective contact of EBCs electrodes and electrolytes, and enhance the electron conduction. The nitrogen and oxygen atoms doped in EBCs improve the surface wettability of EBC electrodes and provide the pseudocapacitance. Consequently, the EBCs display a prominent areal capacitance of 39.8 μF cm^-2 (340 F g^-1) at 0.106 mA cm^-2 in 6 M KOH electrolyte. The EBC-based symmetric SC manifests a high areal capacitance to 27.6 μF cm^-2 (236 F g^-1) at 0.1075 mA cm^-2, a good rate capability of 18.8 μF cm^-2 (160 F g^-1) at 215 mA cm^-2 and a long-term cycle stability with only 1.9% decay after 50,000 cycles in aqueous electrolyte. Impressively, even in all-solid-state SC, EBC electrode shows a high areal capacitance of 25.0 μF cm^-2 (214 F g^-1) and energy density of 0.0233 mWh cm^-2. This work provides an acid-free process to prepare electrode materials from industrial by-products for advanced energy storage devices.

Towards ultrahigh volumetric capacitance: graphene derived highly dense but porous carbons for supercapacitors.

Project description:A small volumetric capacitance resulting from a low packing density is one of the major limitations for novel nanocarbons finding real applications in commercial electrochemical energy storage devices. Here we report a carbon with a density of 1.58 g cm(-3), 70% of the density of graphite, constructed of compactly interlinked graphene nanosheets, which is produced by an evaporation-induced drying of a graphene hydrogel. Such a carbon balances two seemingly incompatible characteristics: a porous microstructure and a high density, and therefore has a volumetric capacitance for electrochemical capacitors (ECs) up to 376 F cm(-3), which is the highest value so far reported for carbon materials in an aqueous electrolyte. More promising, the carbon is conductive and moldable, and thus could be used directly as a well-shaped electrode sheet for the assembly of a supercapacitor device free of any additives, resulting in device-level high energy density ECs.

Construction of layered hierarchical CoMoO<sub>4</sub> nanostructured arrays for supercapacitors with enhanced areal capacitance.

Project description:Layered hierarchical CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays grown on nickel foam were designed and synthesized by a two-step hydrothermal method following by annealing. With the increase in the nearly three times loading mass of active materials, the specific capacitance of the layered hierarchical CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays only shows a slight loss compared with the single-layer CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays, which dramatically improved the areal capacitance from 2.47 to 6.79 F cm-2. Also, the layered hierarchical CoMoO4 nano-structured arrays showed 94.8% capacitance retention after 2500 cycles, which is mainly due to the well-designed layered hierarchical structure and good conductivity.

High Specific Capacitance Electrode Material for Supercapacitors Based on Resin-Derived Nitrogen-Doped Porous Carbons.

Project description:Carbon-based materials, as electrodes for supercapacitors, have attracted tremendous attention. Therefore, nitrogen-doped porous carbons (NPCs) were prepared through a facile carbonization/activation strategy by treating different mass ratios of melamine-urea-formaldehyde resin and KOH. It is clearly demonstrated that because of the introduction of KOH, the resulting NPCs were shown to have increased specific surface area and a rich pore structure, and the best sample possessed a large specific surface area of 2248 m2 g-1 and high N content, which contributed to the good electrochemical performance for supercapacitors. Accordingly, a three-electrode system assembles NPCs as an electrode using aqueous KOH solution; the specific capacitance was 341 F g-1 under the current density of 1 A g-1 and retained a specific capacitance of almost 92% after 5000 cycles. The maximum energy output for a symmetrical solid-state supercapacitor with NPCs as the electrode material was 9.60 W h kg-1 at 1 A g-1. NPCs have promising applications on high-performance supercapacitors and other energy-storage devices.

Ammonium Nitrate-Assisted Synthesis of Nitrogen/Sulfur-Codoped Hierarchically Porous Carbons Derived from Ginkgo Leaf for Supercapacitors.

Project description:Biomass-derived carbons for supercapacitors provide a promising and sustainable strategy to address the worldwide energy and climate change challenges. Here, we have designed and constructed three-dimensional nitrogen/sulfur-codoped hierarchically porous carbons for high-performance supercapacitor electrode materials in a one-step process, in which ginkgo leaf is used as a carbon source and S source and ammonium nitrate (AN) is used as an activating agent and a N source. During the synchronous carbonization and activation process, AN could be decomposed completely into gaseous byproducts and be removed easily without leaving residues after product formation. The as-synthesized ginkgo leaf-derived carbons exhibited a high specific capacitance of 330.5 F g-1 at a current density of 0.5 A g-1 and a capacitance of 252 F g-1 even at a high current density of 10 A g-1 with an excellent capacitance retention of 85.8% after 10 000 cycles in 6 mol L-1 KOH electrolyte. The present study provides an efficient, sustainable, and facile approach to prepare renewable hierarchically porous carbons as advanced electrode materials for energy storage and conversion.

N/O Co-doped Porous Carbons Derived from Coal Tar Pitch for Ultra-high Specific Capacitance Supercapacitors.

Project description:In this paper, a series of N/O co-doped porous carbons (PCs) were designed and used to prepare coal tar pitch-based supercapacitors (SCs). The introduction of N/O species under the intervention of urea effectively improves the pseudocapacitance of PCs. The results show that the specific surface area of synthesized N3PC4-700 is 1914 m2 g-1, while the N and O contents are 1.3 and 7.2%, respectively. The unique interconnected pore structure and proper organic N/O co-doping, especially the introduction of pyridine-N and pyrrole-N, are beneficial for improving the electrochemical performance of PCs. In the three-electrode system, the specific capacitance and rate capability of N3PC4-700 are 532.5 F g-1 and 72.5% at the current densities of 0.5 and 20 A g-1, respectively. In addition, the specific capacitance of N3PC4-700 in a coin-type symmetric device is 315.5 F g-1 at 0.5 A g-1. The N3PC4-700 electrode provides an energy density of 43.8 W h kg-1 with a power density of 0.5 kW kg-1 and still maintains a value of 29.7 at 10 kW kg-1. After 10,000 charge/discharge cycles, the retention rate was as high as 96.7%. In order to obtain high-performance carbon-based SCs, the effective identification and regulation of organic N/O species is necessary.

Microwave Assisted Synthesis of Porous NiCo2O4 Microspheres: Application as High Performance Asymmetric and Symmetric Supercapacitors with Large Areal Capacitance.

Project description:Large areal capacitance is essentially required to integrate the energy storage devices at the microscale electronic appliances. Energy storage devices based on metal oxides are mostly fabricated with low mass loading per unit area which demonstrated low areal capacitance. It is still a challenge to fabricate supercapacitor devices of porous metal oxides with large areal capacitance. Herein we report microwave method followed by a pyrolysis of the as-prepared precursor is used to synthesize porous nickel cobaltite microspheres. Porous NiCo2O4 microspheres are capable to deliver large areal capacitance due to their high specific surface area and small crystallite size. The facile strategy is successfully demonstrated to fabricate aqueous-based asymmetric &symmetric supercapacitor devices of porous NiCo2O4 microspheres with high mass loading of electroactive materials. The asymmetric &symmetric devices exhibit maximum areal capacitance and energy density of 380?mF cm(-2) &19.1?Wh Kg(-1) and 194?mF cm(-2) &4.5?Wh Kg(-1) (based on total mass loading of 6.25 &6.0?mg) respectively at current density of 1?mA cm(-2). The successful fabrication of symmetric device also indicates that NiCo2O4 can also be used as the negative electrode material for futuristic asymmetric devices.

Retarded saturation of the areal capacitance using 3D-aligned MnO<sub>2</sub> thin film nanostructures as a supercapacitor electrode.

Project description:The supercapacitive properties of manganese oxide (MnO2) thin films electrodeposited on three-dimensionally (3D) aligned inverse-opal nickel nanostructures are investigated. Compared to conventional planar or two-dimensionally (2D) aligned nanostructures, 3D-aligned nanostructures can provide considerably increased and controllable contacts between the electrode and electrolyte. As a result, saturation of the areal capacitance with the electrode thickness and associated decrease of the specific capacitance, C sp , become much slower than those of the planar and 2D-aligned electrode systems. While, for planar MnO2 electrodes, the C sp of a 60-cycle electrodeposited electrode is only the half of the 10-cycle electrodeposited one, the value of the 3D-nanostructured electrode remains unchanged under the same condition. The maximum C sp value of 864?F?g-1, and C sp retention of 87.7% after 5000 cycles of galvanostatic charge-discharge are obtained. The voltammetric response is also improved significantly and the C sp measured at 200?mV?s-1 retains 71.7% of the value measured at 10?mV?s-1. More quantitative analysis on the effect of this 3D-aligned nanostructuring is also performed using a deconvolution of the capacitive elements in the total capacitance of the electrodes.

Two-Dimensional Double Hydroxide Nanoarchitecture with High Areal and Volumetric Capacitance.

Project description:The development of high volumetric or areal capacitance energy storage devices is critical for the future electronic devices. Hence, the hunting for next-generation electrode materials and their design is of current interest. The recent work in the two-dimensional metal hydroxide nanomaterials demonstrates its ability as a promising candidate for supercapacitor due to its unique structure and additional redox sites. This study reports a design of freestanding high-mass-loaded copper-cobalt hydroxide interconnected nanosheets for high-volumetric/areal-performance electrode. The unique combination of hydroxide electrode with high mass loading (26 mg/cm2) exhibits high areal and volumetric capacitance of 20.86 F/cm2 (1032 F/cm3) at a current density of 10 mA/cm2. This attributes to the direct growth of hydroxides on porous foam and conductivity of copper, which benefits the electron transport. The asymmetric supercapacitor device exhibits a high energy density of 21.9 mWh/cm3, with superior capacitance retention of 96.55% over 3500 cycles.

Fast Microwave Synthesis of Hierarchical Porous Carbons from Waste Palm Boosted by Activated Carbons for Supercapacitors.

Project description:The synthesis of biomass-derived porous carbons (PCs) for supercapacitors by conventional two-steps method (chemical activation after carbonization) is complicated and time-consuming. In this study, we present a one-step microwave activation strategy to prepare hierarchically PCs from waste palm boosted by activated carbons (ACs). ACs with various specific surface areas (14, 642, and 1344 m²·g-1) were used for the first time to fast absorb microwave energy for converting waste palm into hierarchically PCs, that is, PC1, PC2, and PC3, respectively. The morphological and structural characterizations of PCs were studied. Also, the electrochemical performances of supercapacitors based on PCs as electrodes were further investigated. The results showed that the PC (PC1) boosted by AC with the lowest specific surface area possessed a porous structure (containing micro-, meso-, and macro- pores) with the largest specific surface area (1573 m²·g-1) and the highest micropore volume (0.573 cm³·g-1), as well as the suitable mesoporosity (29.69%). The as-prepared PC1 supercapacitor even in a gel electrolyte (PVA/LiCl) exhibited a high specific capacitance of 226.0 F·g-1 at 0.5 A·g-1 and presented excellent charge-discharge performance with an energy density of 72.3 Wh·kg-1 at a power density of 1.4 kW·kg-1 and 50.0 Wh·kg-1 at 28.8 kW·kg-1. Moreover, this promising method exhibited a simple, rapid, and cost-effective preparation of carbon materials from renewable biomass for energy storage applications.

Improvement of system capacitance via weavable superelastic biscrolled yarn supercapacitors.

Project description:Yarn-based supercapacitors having improved performance are needed for existing and emerging wearable applications. Here, we report weavable carbon nanotube yarn supercapacitors having high performance because of high loadings of rapidly accessible charge storage particles (above 90?wt% MnO2). The yarn electrodes are made by a biscrolling process that traps host MnO2 nanoparticles within the galleries of helically scrolled carbon nanotube sheets, which provide strength and electrical conductivity. Despite the high loading of brittle metal oxide particles, the biscrolled solid-state yarn supercapacitors are flexible and can be made elastically stretchable (up to 30% strain) by over-twisting to produce yarn coiling. The maximum areal capacitance of the yarn electrodes were up to 100 times higher than for previously reported fibres or yarn supercapacitors. Similarly, the energy density of complete, solid-state supercapacitors made from biscrolled yarn electrodes with gel electrolyte coating were significantly higher than for previously reported fibre or yarn supercapacitors.
