J. Electrochem</i>., 2022, 58, 1103) is based on the comparison of the measured non-stationary current for the electrode/membrane/electrolyte solution system upon the applying of a potential step with the theoretical expressions for the current–time dependence. Application of this method for the study of bromide-anion transport across the membrane was performed in the previous work under the condition of the membrane permselectivity where the amplitude of the electric field inside the membrane was suppressed owing to a high concentration of non-electroactive counterions. Then, the coion (bromide anion) transport occurred by the diffusional mechanism, for which the solution was available in an analytical form. The present study considers for the first time a non-stationary electrodiffusional transmembrane transport of two singly charged ions (e.g., background cation М⁺ as the counterion and electroactive anion X^– as the coion) having identical diffusion coefficients where the current passage induced a transient electric field in this space, resulting in a deviation from predictions for the diffusional mechanism. It is found that within the short time interval after the applying of the potential step from the membrane equilibrium state to the limiting current regime (where the thickness of the non-stationary diffusion layer is significantly smaller than that of the membrane) the non-stationary distributions of the ion concentrations and of the electric field strength as a function of two variables (the spatial and temporal ones, <i>x</i> and <i>t</i>) can be expressed via a function of one variable, <i>Z</i>(<i>z</i>), where <i>z</i> = <i>x</i>/(4<i>Dt</i>)^1/2. The form of the expression, depending on the ratio of the surface concentration of component X to the fixed charge density inside the membrane (<i>X</i>_m/<i>C</i>_f) has been found by numerical integration. The limiting current varies with time according to the Cottrell formula (<i>I</i> ~ <i>t</i>^–1/2); the dependence of the dimensionless current amplitude, <i>i</i>, on the <i>X</i>_m/<i>C</i>_f ratio is found by numerical calculation; an approximate analytical formula has also been proposed. In particular, the passing current is shown to be close to the diffusion-limited one for a low coion concentration at the membrane/electrolyte solution boundary as compared with the concentration of immobile charged groups inside the membrane (<i>X</i>_m/<i>C</i>_f <span>( ll )</span> 1), whereas the migration contribution to the ionic fluxes doubles the limiting current when the opposite condition (<i>X</i>_m/<i>C</i>_f <span>( gg )</span> 1) is fulfilled.</p>","PeriodicalId":760,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Electrochemistry","volume":"60 7","pages":"532 - 543"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141718464","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The microporous structure of the nanopaper is formed by carbonized resorcinol–formaldehyde xerogel, and the mesoporous structure is formed by the nanotube framework. Previously, the characteristics of nanopaper electrodes in an aqueous electrolyte of 1M H₂SO₄ were measured, where the maximum capacitance was 155 F/g (56 F/cm³). To work with an organic electrolyte, a method for activating CCNP with potassium hydroxide has been developed. In this paper the characteristics of electrodes made of activated nanopaper (a-CCNP) in an organic electrolyte 1 M 1,1-Dimethylpyrrolidinium tetrafluoroborate (DMPBF₄)/acetonitrile solution were measured. The capacitance in this electrolyte has been reached 70 F/g (27 F/cm³).

In this work, we designed a K_0.5MnO₂@MWCNT@Super P (KMP) composite electrode with P3-type layered structure as the cathode in PIBs through coprecipitation—high temperature sintering method.
