炭/导电聚合物复合材料是近年来发展起来应用于超级电容器的一种新型电极材料。炭材料与氧化物的复合材料,或者炭材料与导电聚合物的复合材料,能够将双电层电容与法拉第电容结合,既可提高超级电容器的比电容,改变其充放电电压,又可提高其循环性能。本文综述了近年来国内外各种炭材料,如活性炭、碳纳米管等与导电聚合物复合材料的研究进展,认为炭与导电聚合物的复合材料,尤其是性能优良的炭气凝胶,模板法制备的中孔炭,以及由金属或非金属碳化物与氯气等刻蚀剂反应制备的骨架炭与导电聚合物的复合材料是超级电容器电极材料研究的一个重要发展方向。
Carbon/conducting polymer composite is a novel electrode material which is recently used for the application of supercapacitors. The composites of carbon and metal oxide, or carbon and conducting polymers can fully combine advantages of double-layer capacitance of carbon materials and pseudo-capacitance of metal oxide or conducting polymer, and thus the materials can provide not only high specific capacitance and working voltage, but also excellent cycle stability. In this paper, we illustrate the recent research progress of the composites of carbon at home and abroad, such as active carbon, carbon nanotubes and conducting polymers, and believe that the composites of carbon and conducting polymers will be a promising electrode material for supercapacitors, especially carbon aerogels, mesoporous carbon prepared by template synthesis, and carbide derived carbon which is prepared by selective thermo-chemical etching from carbide in chlorine gas flow.
