Preparation and Electrochemical Performance of PPy/GO-RuO2 Film Electrode for Micro-supercapacitor

doi:10.15541/jim20140500

Abstract

Abstract:

To address the issue that RuO₂ was difficult to deposit directly on the micro-3D-structure metal current collector due to its high deposition potential, this study was engaged to prepare RuO₂ composite film by the fractional electro-deposition method. PPy/GO film was firstly deposited on nickel current collector as substrate, then RuO₂ particles were deposited on the substrate after heat-treatment, finally the RuO₂ composite film was carried on a second heat-treatment. By means of scanning electron microscope (SEM), it can be found that the porous structures of RuO₂ composite film multiply with the increase of heat-treatment temperature, so that the pore structure of the membrane electrode is improved. By means of X-ray energy dispersive spectroscope (EDS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscope (XPS), the results indicate that there exists amorphous RuO₂·xH₂O in the film, which ensures the great specific capacity of the membrane electrode. The electrochemical testing results indicate that the electrochemical performance of membrane electrode is optimal when heat-treatment temperature reaches 105℃, with specific capacitance of 28.5 mF/cm², energy density of 0.04 Wh/m² and power density of 14.25 W/m². The RuO₂ composite film prepared by using step-by-step electro-deposition method is a type of excellent electrode material for micro-supercapacitor.
