Background technology
Along with serious day by day to environment and ecological impact of the progressively exhausted of petrochemical industry resource and it, save and the high effect cleaning use energy more and more comes into one's own.Ultracapacitor (electrochemical capacitor) is subjected to paying close attention to widely as one of high-efficiency energy-storage and energy transformation device.Electrode materials is the deciding factor of ultracapacitor performance.Owing to there is the different states of oxidation, conducting polymer (polypyrrole, polyaniline, Polythiophene, polyhenylene, and their derivative equiconjugate superpolymer) can be used as the electrode materials of oxidation-reduction type ultracapacitor.Compare with the electrode materials (carbon material and metal oxide) of the common ultracapacitor of other two class, conducting polymer composite (being also referred to as conduction high polymer) is than carbon material (gac, carbon fiber and carbon nanotube) have higher specific storage and specific energy (Specific Energy), have lower cost than metal oxide (as ruthenium oxide).Can be simpler during by electrochemical production conducting polymer composite electrode for capacitors than carbon material and metal oxide materials technology.Therefore, conducting polymer composite is the electrode material for super capacitor that a class has practical value very much.
Yet, conductive high molecular electrode material follows doping that ion is deviate to enter electrolytic solution (to the ion dedoping) in the polymkeric substance grid when discharge, this can cause the volumetric shrinkage of polymkeric substance, at when charging embedded polymer thing grid and reduce the capacity of polymkeric substance, and repeatedly pucker ﹠ bloat can cause the polymeric film defective to increase and influence the cyclical stability of electrode to ion in influence.Polymkeric substance specific conductivity when discharge condition (dedoping state) can sharply descend, and this will increase the internal resistance of electrical condenser greatly.

Referring to Fig. 1, as can be seen from the figure carbon nanotube is coated by polypyrrole, and can connect together large-area polypyrrole, can effectively increase the electron conduction of mixture like this.In this matrix material, carbon nanotube not only can be contributed the electric double layer capacitance amount, improves the electroconductibility of mixture, and its hollow structure can absorb volumetric shrinkage and the expansion that causes when polymer discharges and recharges, so mixture has charge-discharge characteristic faster.
Referring to Fig. 2, from Fig. 2 (a) as can be seen, when scanning speed was 10mV/s, the polypyrrole film electrode showed comparatively ideal ultracapacitor cyclic voltammetry curve (near rectangle), but along with the increase of scanning speed, polypyrrole film just shows the cyclic voltammetry curve of similar resistance gradually.Yet the mixture of polypyrrole/carbon nanotube still shows the cyclic voltammetry curve of comparatively ideal ultracapacitor when scanning speed is 200mV/s, shown in Fig. 2 (b).When scanning speed is 10mV/s, the specific storage of the mixture of polypyrrole/carbon nanotube surpasses 200F/g, when scanning speed is 200mV/s, it is 71.1% of 10mV/s that specific storage still has scanning speed, and polypyrrole film is when scanning speed is 200mV/s merely, and it is 13.6% of 10mV/s that specific storage only has scanning speed.As shown in Figure 3.Therefore, the conducting polymer that makes/carbon nanotube electrode material has high conductivity, height ratio capacity and super-quick charging discharge capability, and have stability preferably.Therefore this composite materials can make high-energy-density, high-specific-power and long-life ultracapacitor.
