Activated Carbon Produced from Sasol-lurgi Gasifier Pitch and Its Application as Electrodes in Supercapacitors
A pyrolysis product derived from SASOL-Lurgi gasifier pitch was activated using different proportions of KOH. The increase of the amount of KOH used for activation caused the activation degree of the carbons to increase very significantly. The activated carbons obtained using lower amounts of KOH were mainly microporous, while the amount of mesopores developed in the samples progressively incre...
متن کاملCarbon Nanotube-Based Supercapacitors
Due to the need for increased power performance, supercapacitors are emerging as an alternative to conventional electric energy storage devices. Because of their unique properties, carbon nanotubes are a promising material for next generation supercapacitors. Specifically, the use of nanotubes to construct supercapacitor electrodes can increases the power density and performance of supercapacit...
متن کاملThermochemically activated carbon as an electrode material for supercapacitors
The results of electrochemical studies of nanoporous carbon as electrode material for electrochemical capacitors (EC) are presented in this work. Nanoporous carbon material (NCM) was obtained from the raw materials of plant origin by carbonization and subsequent activation in potassium hydroxide. It is established that there is an optimal ratio of 1:1 between content of KOH and carbon material ...
متن کاملCost Effective and Scalable Synthesis of MnO2 Doped Graphene in a Carbon Fiber/PVA: Superior Nanocomposite for High Performance Flexible Supercapacitors
In the current study, we report new flexible, free standing and high performance electrodes for electrochemical supercapacitors developed througha scalable but simple and efficient approach. Highly porous structures based on carbon fiber and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) were used as a pattern. The electrochemical performances of Carbon fiber/GO-MnO2/CNT supercapacitors were characteriz...
متن کاملCarbon-based nanocomposite EDLC supercapacitors
EDLC cells based on activated carbon as host material electrodes were fabricated and tested. The MWCNT additive was added into the host material to form a nanocomposite and the effect of the MWCNTs concentration on improving the performance of the EDLC cells was explored. 1M TEABF4-PC solution was used as organic electrolyte. The nanocomposites functioned differently in improving the specific p...
