Multiscale modeling of carbon nanotube growth on a supercapacitor electrode

Vertically Aligned Carbon Nanotube (VACNT) – based electrochemical double layer capacitors, called “supercapacitors” are intermediate systems that can potentially bridge the power/energy gap between traditional dielectric capacitors (high power) and batteries (high power density). However, their future is uncertain because of technical stumbling block in their fabrication related to the post-gr...

Synthesis and Electrochemical Characterization of Iron Oxide / Activated Carbon Composite Electrode for Symmetrical Supercapacitor

In the present work, we have developed a symmetric electrochemical capacitor based on the nanostructured iron oxide (Fe3O4)-activated carbon (AC) nanocomposite materials. The physical properties of the nanocomposites were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. The electrochemical performances of the composite electrode in 1.0 M Na2SO3 and ...

Carbon Nanotubes Supported Conducting Polymer Electrode for Supercapacitor

Supercapacitors (SCs) as portable systems and electric vehicles have aroused great interest due to their high power in short term. The composite materials of carbon nanotubes and conducting polymers have been considered for SC electrodes. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), due to their outstanding electric properties and nanoscale texture, such as large specific area, low cost, and cycle stability, exhib...

Chemical vapor-deposited carbon nanofibers on carbon fabric for supercapacitor electrode applications

Entangled carbon nanofibers (CNFs) were synthesized on a flexible carbon fabric (CF) via water-assisted chemical vapor deposition at 800°C at atmospheric pressure utilizing iron (Fe) nanoparticles as catalysts, ethylene (C2H4) as the precursor gas, and argon (Ar) and hydrogen (H2) as the carrier gases. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and electron dispersive spect...
