  1. Development of Low Cost Composites for Supercapacitors by Hansung Kim and Branko N. Popov Department of Chemical Engineering Center for Electrochemical Engineering University of South Carolina

  2. Objectives • To develop a new low cost alloy materials for a supercapacitor electrode based on MnO2. • It should be reversible over a large potential window and have a high specific capacitance and a good rate capability. • The Mn/X Ox(X= Co, Sn, Pb, Ni) mixed oxide will be synthesized at a low temperature to obtain amorphous structure. • The ratio of Mn/X (X= Co, Sn, Pb, Ni), composition of electrode and annealing temperature will be optimized.

  23. Comparison of low cost materials developed for supercapacitor applications • NiO: • ~250 F/g, 300oC, 120 m2/g, Potential window : 0.5V, 1M KOH • CoOx : • ~291 F/g, 150oC, Potential window : 0.4V, 1M KOH • MnO2 : • ~166 F/g, 300 m2/g, Potential window : 0.9V, 1M KCl • Energy density of 6.9Wh/Kg at 1000W/Kg • Pb2Ru2O6.5 : • ~100 F/g, 35m2/g, potential window : 1V, 0.5M H2SO4 • Energy density of 11Wh/Kg at 750W/Kg • Mn8Pb2O16 : • ~185 F/g, 100oC, 320 m2/g, potential window : 0.9V, 1M Na2SO4 • Energy density of 10.2 Wh/Kg at 700W/Kg • Mn/NiOx • ~210 F/g, 200oC, potential window : 0.9V, 1M Na2SO4 • Energy density of 14 Wh/Kg at 700W/Kg

  24. Conclusions (1) • Co, Sn, Pb, Ni mixed oxide based on Mn were fabricated by the reduction of KMnO4at low temperature. • By introducing Pb, Ni into Mn, the capacitance increased to 185F/g and 210F/g from 166F/g. • The annealing temperature was optimized to be 200 oC for Mn/NiOx and 100 oC for Mn/PbOx. • With increasing annealing temperature, the structure changed into crystalline which caused the steep decrease of capacitance. In the case of Ni, phase separation occurred with heat decomposition over 500oC. • The ratio of Pb in Mn alloy increased continuously over 30mol % while Ni was saturated at 16 mol%

  25. Conclusions (2) • Carbon is used to increase conductivity of the electrode and the ratio was optimized to be 20wt%. In this ratio, Mn/NiOx showed high rate capability of 12Wh/kg at constant power discharge of 1kW/kg • It showed stable cycle life in the potential range of 0.9V. • From these facts, it can be concluded that Mn/PbOx and Mn/NiOx can be a promising material for a supercapacitor application.
