Description

TiC nanotube array material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of capacitors, in particular to a TiC nanotube array material, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in a super capacitor.
Background
With the continuous consumption of fossil energy and the increasing environmental problems, the development of clean and renewable energy sources (wind energy, solar energy, tidal energy, etc.) has become an urgent need for social development. The supply of these energy sources is usually intermittent and seasonal due to the effects of the natural environment. Therefore, efficient energy storage and conversion technologies are very important for the utilization of renewable energy sources. The battery has higher energy density, so that the battery becomes an electronic energy storage element which is widely used, but with the continuous improvement of social requirements, the performance of the existing battery is more and more difficult to meet the requirements of production and development. How to improve the cycle life and power density of the battery and solve the problems of battery safety and environmental protection recycling is a major challenge in battery development.
At the same time of optimizing and improving the performance of the existing battery, researchers at home and abroad are continuously exploring novel energy storage elements. The super capacitor is widely concerned at home and abroad as an environment-friendly and efficient energy storage device, the energy density of the super capacitor is far higher than that of a traditional capacitor, the performances such as cycle life, power density and charge-discharge efficiency are obviously superior to those of a secondary battery, the super capacitor has the advantages of two types of energy storage devices such as the traditional capacitor and the secondary battery, and the super capacitor has great development potential. Supercapacitors, which are a typical capital-intensive industry, are at a rapidly evolving stage. Among them, a number of domestic local manufacturers such as Shanghai Oswey science and technology development Co., Ltd, Shenzhen this era new energy technology Co., Ltd, Beijing Jixing Joint Electron technology Co., Ltd should rise up, and international brands are represented by MAXWELL, Korean LSMtron, Nesscap, Japan Song, NEC-TOKIN, etc. In addition, the national and foreign famous schools, institutions and enterprises are actively developing research and development cooperation, including the modern times, the Chinese science and technology development institute, the LSMtron company, Shenzhen Wuzhou Longcar Limited company, Shenzhen research institute of the Harbin university, the Hunan university materials and engineering systems, and the like, jointly building laboratories and engineering centers, and jointly promoting the rapid development of the novel energy industry by taking the super-capacitor energy storage technology research as the core. Since the market comes, the global demand of the super capacitor is rapidly expanded, the super capacitor is widely applied to important fields and links such as national defense and military industry, rail transit, urban public transport, crane mechanical potential energy recovery, power generation, smart power grids, consumer electronics and the like, and the super capacitor becomes a novel industry with development prospects in the field of electrochemical energy storage.
However, the energy density of the super capacitor is much lower than that of the existing secondary battery, which is also a key issue facing the application and development thereof. The overall performance of the super capacitor mainly depends on electrode materials, an ideal electrode should have rich nano-structures, the transport/diffusion paths of ions and electrons can be shortened, higher kinetics can be realized, and the high specific surface area can provide more active sites for ion adsorption and redox reaction, so that the storage capacity is greatly improved. Therefore, it is very important to research and design the nanostructure electrode material.
In recent years, TiC has received attention because of its high electrical conductivity, good chemical and mechanical stability. The preparation process of TiC is mainly template method and vapor deposition method, which require high reaction temperature (>1100 ℃) and complex process. Moreover, most of the existing materials are prepared in a powder form, an additional conductive lining body and an organic adhesive are required for assembly, the increase of the conductive lining body improves the process difficulty and the cost for manufacturing the electrode, and the use of the adhesive increases the self weight of the electrode, so that the TiC energy density is reduced.
Therefore, how to prepare the high energy density TiC nanotube array material is the direction of research by those skilled in the art.
