In sustainable technologies, the application of supercapacitors (SC) for energy conversion and storage systems is rapidly increasing. Supercapacitors are widely employed in applications that require fast charge and discharge phases, such as in the automobile industry, where they are utilized in energy storage. Chitosan (CS) is a natural polymer material utilized in supercapacitor fabrication. Interest in supercapacitors is due to their high-energy capacity, storage for a shorter period, and longer lifetime. In this research, the fabrication of symmetric supercapacitors with activated carbon (AC) electrodes has been investigated in order to analyze their performance characteristics. AC is derived from CS biomass, which has remarkable biodegradability. It has been chemically activated using ZnCl2 as the activating agent. CS has been activated inside a furnace at 500, 600, and 700°C in an inert N2 atmosphere. A 1M aqueous potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution is used as the electrolyte. The
In the current study, the performance characteristics of symmetric super-capacitor (SC) utilizing activated carbon electrodes have been analyzed in an aqueous 1M potassium hydroxide (KOH) solution implemented as the electrolyte. Activated carbon (AC) is derived from Chitosan (CS), which possesses remarkable biodegradable characteristics via the chemical activation method at N2 atmosphere conditions using ZnCl2 as activating agent. To evaluate how CS performs at various activation temperatures of 500, 600, and 700°C, the experiment was conducted. The effect on activation temperature here on porous properties of prepared AC was investigated systematically, using surface area and pore size analysis. Additional morphological properties of synthesized AC were analyzed using the techniques of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (EDX). Symmetric super-capacitor electrodes were fabricated, and their performance was analyzed in a two-electrode system applyin
Metallic Zn has been regarded as ideal anodes in aqueous electrolyte owing to its high theoretical capacity, intrinsic safety, low cost, and nontoxicity. However, the Zn dendrite growth and the side-reactions hindered the practical application of Zn anode. Herein, a thin and uniform three-dimensional (3D) COOH-functionalized covalent organic frameworks (COF) film (denoted as 3D-COOH-COF) is designed and in-situ synthesized as a protective layer to stabilize the Zn anode. The thin 3D-COOH-COF protection film with abundant negative functional groups and homogeneous nanochannels facilitates the fast transport of Zn2+, impedes the pass through of SO42−, and significantly suppresses the corrosion reactions, leading to an excellent electrochemical performance. The novel 3D-COOH-COF protective film enables the Zn||Zn symmetric cells to stably cycle for over 2000 h at 1 mA cm−2 and an average Coulombic efficiency of Zn plating/stripping as high as 99.5% for 1000 cycles at 1 mA cm−2.This
