以二氧化锰(MnO2)作为氧化剂,采用化学原位聚合法在室温下制备得到聚苯胺-碳纳米管(PANI-CNTs,简称为M-PC)纳米复合材料,并采用SEM、XRD对PANI-CNTs复合材料的结构与性能进行了表征。用恒电流充放电技术测试了以其作为电极的超级电容器的电化学性能。恒电流充放电实验结果表明,在电流密度5mA.cm-2下单电极比容量达355F.g-1,1000次循环后比容量仍有189F.g-1。M-PC较以过硫酸铵(APS)为氧化剂制备的PANI-CNTs(简称为N-PC)具有更好的循环性能和更高的比容量。
PANI-CNTs were prepared by chemical in-situ polymerization at ambient temperature,using manganese dioxide as the oxidant.The morphology and structure of PANI-CNTs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD).The electrochemical performances of the supercapacitor assembled with PANI-CNTs were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge.The specific capacitance of the M-PC electrode was about 355 F·g-1 at the charge-discharge current density of 5mA·cm-2.After 1000 charge-discharge cycles the specific capacitance of the M-PC electrode was about 189F·g-1.For comparison,M-PC had better cycle performance and higher capacity than N-PC,which was prepared by ammonium persulphate.
