Four, the graphene oxide that step 3 is obtained-acetylene black aqueous dispersions is under 50 ℃ the condition in temperature, adds the KOH that step 1 takes by weighing, and is that 40KHz, power are that the ultrasound condition of 50W reduces 1h down in frequency, obtains Graphene-acetylene black colloidal dispersion;
Five, the Graphene that step 4 is obtained-acetylene black colloidal dispersion joins in the flask of Rotary Evaporators; In vacuum tightness is that 70 ℃, rotating speed are that decompression rotary evaporation to water cut is that 98.7% gel is separated out in the Graphene colloidal dispersion under 70 rev/mins the condition for-0.09MPa, temperature; To scrape attached to the gel on the flask inwall then; Carry out the vacuum filtration washing, obtain Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel.
Carry out according to the following steps as the preparation method of the electrode of super capacitor of electrode active material to test three Graphene-acetylene black hydrogels of obtaining: be immersed in after being coated in Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel on the titanium foil electrode current collecting body in the electrolytic solution of ultracapacitor and flood 12h, obtain with the electrode of super capacitor of Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel as active substance; Wherein electrolytic solution is that density is the aqueous sulfuric acid of 1.28g/mL.
With above-mentioned with Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel as the electrode of super capacitor of electrode active material as the research electrode; With the Graphite Electrodes is counter electrode; With mercury/mercurous sulfate electrode is reference electrode; Form three-electrode system, test is with the super capacitor characteristic of Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel as the electrode of super capacitor of electrode active material.
Test is with the cyclic voltammetry curve of Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel as the electrode of super capacitor of electrode active material, and cyclic voltammetry curve is converted to than electric capacity-potential curve, and the ratio electric capacity-potential curve that obtains is as shown in Figure 6.A is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 0.02V/s; B is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 0.05V/s; C is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 0.1V/s; D is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 0.2V/s; E is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 0.5V/s; F is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 1V/s; G is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 2V/s; H is that sweep velocity is the ratio electric capacity-potential curve under the 5V/s.As can beappreciated from fig. 6; Exist a pair of on the curve at a distance of nearer oxidation-reduction peak; And along with the increase peak separation of sweeping speed increases, show this to the oxidation-reduction peak corresponding one will definitely be contrary electrochemical reaction, i.e. the redox reaction of oxygen-containing functional group on the Graphene surface.In addition, commutate moment at potential scan, electric current rises rapidly, shows good capacitance characteristic.When sweep velocity during up to 1V/s, the curve of curve during with 0.01V/s still is more or less the same the numerical value when still being in close proximity to 0.01V/s than electric capacity.And when sweep velocity during up to 5V/s, curve still approaches rectangle very much, explains that the electrode of super capacitor of this test three preparations has splendid high rate capability.
Graphene-acetylene black hydrogel electrode is carried out constant current charge-discharge under the different electric flow density, it is as shown in Figure 7 that corresponding constant current charges and discharge curve, and wherein a is that current density is the constant current charge-discharge curve under the 2A/g condition; B is that current density is the constant current charge-discharge curve under the 5A/g condition; C is that current density is the constant current charge-discharge curve under the 10A/g condition; D is that current density is the constant current charge-discharge curve under the 50A/g condition; Visible by Fig. 7, good at different electric flow density lower electrode capacitance characteristic.When current density reached 50A/g, electrode can be emitted most of capacity in a few times in second.
The discharge of constant current charge-discharge under the different electric flow density is mapped with current density than electric capacity, and the ratio electric capacity that obtains and the relation curve of current density are as shown in Figure 8.Visible by Fig. 8, under the 1A/g current density, reach 139.8F/g than electric capacity, along with the increase of current density, than electric capacity through almost no longer reducing after the decline at initial stage, when current density still reaches 115.2F/g than electric capacity during up to 500A/g.
All these experimental results all show; Graphene-acetylene black the hydrogel of test three preparations shows the fake capacitance electric current of surface oxygen functional group in sulfuric acid electrolyte as the electrode of super capacitor of electrode active material; Has higher specific capacitance; Also have extraordinary high power charging-discharging characteristic, its high magnification characteristic even be superior to testing pure Graphene hydrogel electrode in is fit to do the electrode materials of ultracapacitor very much.These good characteristics be derived from the graphene-based hydrogel moisture and acetylene black at interval graphene nanometer sheet, guaranteed high electrode surface and bigger nano level hole, for electrolytic solution provides abundant contact area and broad quick transmission path.And the fake capacitance electric current of Graphene surface oxygen functional group has also improved the ratio capacitance of electrode.Simultaneously,, good water retention property is arranged also, make the supply of gel electrode electrolyte inside abundant by the existing good conductive characteristic of chain-cluster body that the acetylene black of tens nanometer particle sizes is formed.
