As a kind of energy storage device, a super capacitor kamcap is very popular. The explosive growth of mobile electronic devices, electric vehicles, drones, and other technologies has driven the need for new lightweight materials that can power such devices. According to foreign media reports, researchers at the University of Houston and Texas A&M University have used reduced graphene oxide and aramid nanofibers to make structural supercapacitor electrodes, and this type of electrode is stronger and more flexible than traditional carbon-based electrodes.
The University of Houston research team also proved that compared with the traditional modeling method (ie, porous media model), modeling based on the nanostructure of the material can more accurately understand the ion diffusion in the composite electrode and its related characteristics.
The researchers said that more accurate modeling methods can help researchers find more efficient new nanostructured materials, and this material can achieve a longer battery service life and provide higher energy with a lighter weight.
The tested materials namely reduced graphene oxide and aramid nanofibers (or rGO/ANF) are good candidates because of their strong electrochemical and mechanical properties. The electrodes of supercapacitors are usually made of porous carbon-based materials, which can achieve high-efficiency electrode performance. While reduced graphene oxide is mainly made of carbon, aramid nanofibers provide mechanical strength and increase the versatility of the electrode, allowing it to be used in military and other applications.
The researchers said: "What we want to convey is that traditional models, that is, models based on porous media, may not be accurate enough when designing such new nanostructured materials and exploring the use of such materials in electrodes or other energy storage devices. The reason is that the porous media model generally assumes that the pore size inside the material is uniform, rather than measuring the different sizes and geometric characteristics of the material."
