Abstract
Carbon materials with adjustable porosity, controllable heteroatom doping and low-cost have been received considerable attention as supercapacitor electrodes. However, using carbon materials with abundant micropores, a high surface area and a high-dopant content for an aqueous supercapacitor with a high energy output still remains a challenge. We report the easy synthesis of interconnected carbon spheres by a polymerization reaction between p-benzaldehyde and 2,6-diaminopyridine. The synthesis involves adjusting the mass ratio of the copolymer and KOH activator to achieve increased charge storage ability and high energy output, which are attributed to the high ion-accessible area provided by the large number of micropores, high N/O contents and rapid ion diffusion channels in the porous structure. At a PMEC∶KOH mass ratio of 1∶1, the high electrolyte ion-adsorption area (2599.76 m2 g−1) and the N/O dopant atoms of the conductive framework of a typical carbon electrode produce a superior specific capacity (303.2 F g−1@0.5 A g−1) giving an assembled symmetric capacitor a high energy delivery of 11.3 Wh kg−1@250 W kg−1. This study presents a simple strategy for synthesizing microporous carbon and highlights its potential use in KOH-based supercapacitors.
期刊介绍:
New Carbon Materials is a scholarly journal that publishes original research papers focusing on the physics, chemistry, and technology of organic substances that serve as precursors for creating carbonaceous solids with aromatic or tetrahedral bonding. The scope of materials covered by the journal extends from diamond and graphite to a variety of forms including chars, semicokes, mesophase substances, carbons, carbon fibers, carbynes, fullerenes, and carbon nanotubes. The journal's objective is to showcase the latest research findings and advancements in the areas of formation, structure, properties, behaviors, and technological applications of carbon materials. Additionally, the journal includes papers on the secondary production of new carbon and composite materials, such as carbon-carbon composites, derived from the aforementioned carbons. Research papers on organic substances will be considered for publication only if they have a direct relevance to the resulting carbon materials.
