Abstract
This study presents the development of a high-performance supercapacitor, Praseodymium bis-phthalocyanine (Pr-bi-Ph) integrated with functionalized carbon nanotubes (FCNTs), referred to as Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs. Comprehensive characterization techniques, including cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), galvanostatic charge/discharge (GSCD), as well as Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), FT-IR, and EDS analyses, were employed to evaluate the electrochemical properties of the composite. At a current density of 1.0 A g⁻¹, Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs exhibited a remarkable specific capacitance of 351 F g⁻¹, significantly surpassing that of Pr-bi-Ph alone, which registered 136 F g⁻¹. Notably, Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs demonstrated exceptional cycling stability, maintaining 93% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles, even at a high current density of 10 A g⁻¹. The enhanced electrochemical performance is attributed to the synergistic effects of Pr-bi-Ph's high pseudocapacitance and conductivity, coupled with the capacitive contributions and excellent conductivity of FCNTs. This research highlights the potential of Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs as an effective, economical, and renewable material for advanced supercapacitor applications.
本研究介绍了一种高性能超级电容器的开发,双酞菁镨(Pr-bi-Ph)与功能化碳纳米管(FCNTs)集成,称为Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs。采用循环伏安法(CV)、电化学阻抗谱(EIS)、扫描电镜(SEM)、恒流充放电(GSCD)、BET、FT-IR和EDS等综合表征技术对复合材料的电化学性能进行了评价。当电流密度为1.0 a g⁻¹时,Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs的比容为351 F g⁻¹,大大超过了单独的Pr-bi-Ph的比容为136 F g⁻¹。值得注意的是,Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs表现出优异的循环稳定性,即使在10a g⁻¹的高电流密度下,5000次循环后仍保持93%的电容保持率。增强的电化学性能是由于Pr-bi-Ph的高赝电容和电导率的协同作用,再加上FCNTs的电容贡献和优异的电导率。这项研究突出了Pr-bi-Ph@FCNTs作为先进超级电容器应用的有效、经济和可再生材料的潜力。
