Abstract
The carbon material with surface folds (the product was marked as SJC) derived from the leaves of Sophora japonica was prepared by a one-step carbonization method. NiCo-based basic carbonates (NiCoBC) were prepared by a one-step solvothermal method. Subsequently, a composite material of SJC and NiCoBC was synthesized by solvothermal method (the product was marked as NiCoBC@C). Because SJC has a high content of heteroatoms, SJC can not only increase the electronic conductivity of NiCoBC@C, but also improve wettability and promote the diffusion of electrolytes. Thanks to the structural advantages of NiCoBC@C, the electrochemical performance of NiCoBC@C is superior to that of a single component. The asymmetric supercapacitors (ASC) constructed with NiCoBC@C and activated carbon (AC) exhibit high specific capacity of 65 C g−1 (at 0.5 A g−1), excellent rate performance (the specific capacity remains 80 % when the current density is increased by 6 times), and a high energy density of 14.4 Wh kg−1. In this work, SJC shows excellent conductivity and low cost, and effectively improves the electrochemical performance of NiCoBC@C, which provided a good guide for low-cost preparation of electrode materials and improvement of electrochemical performance.
以槐叶为原料,采用一步炭化法制备了具有表面褶皱的碳材料(产品标记为SJC)。采用一步溶剂热法制备了镍基碱式碳酸盐(NiCoBC)。随后,通过溶剂热法合成了SJC和NiCoBC的复合材料(产品标记为NiCoBC@C)。由于SJC的杂原子含量高,SJC不仅可以提高NiCoBC@C的电子导电性,还可以提高润湿性,促进电解质的扩散。由于NiCoBC@C的结构优势,NiCoBC@C的电化学性能优于单一组分。用NiCoBC@C和活性炭(AC)构建的不对称超级电容器(ASC)具有65 C g−1的高比容量(0.5 A g−1),优异的倍率性能(当电流密度增加6倍时比容量保持80 %)和14.4 Wh kg−1的高能量密度。在本工作中,SJC表现出优异的导电性和低成本,有效地提高了NiCoBC@C的电化学性能,为低成本制备电极材料和提高电化学性能提供了良好的指导。
