High performance for electric double-layer capacitors based on CNT-CG composite synthesized as additive material by CVD method
E-mail:
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were successfully grown on chemically synthesized graphene at a low temperature (700 °C) under atmospheric pressure by using chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and used as novel, suitable electrode materials for electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) was demonstrated. The growth state of the CNT-CG sample was characterized by SEM, TEM, and Raman spectroscopy. Then, EDLC electrodes with high surface area activated carbon (YP50F) and CNT-CG were fabricated in a simple step. Slurry type EDLCs cells were assembled using the prepared carbon materials. The electrochemical performance of the carbon electrodes was measured by galvanostatic charge/discharge and cyclic voltammetry methods With more than 80% of their capacitance was retained after 30 cycles, the YCG8 samples exhibited excellent stability and reliability at high current charge/discharge cycles. The high stability of the supercapacitors at different densities suggests that these energy storage devices are suitable for fast charging applications. Herein, CNT-graphene synthesized by the CVD method is presented as a promising substitute to conventional electrode materials for EDLCs.
