| Description | Journal: Nanotechnology Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) are promising electrode materials for electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) due to their high porosity and electrical conductivity. CNFs were prepared by electrospinning and subsequent thermal treatment of a new precursor polymer, 6FDA-durene, without the addition of pore generating agents. The conversion of precursor nanofibers into CNFs was confirmed using Raman spectroscopy. CNFs were activated and annealed, and nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurements were conducted to determine surface area and porosity. These activated/annealed CNFs were used as binderless electrodes in coin cells with an ionic liquid electrolyte. The devices displayed a specific capacitance of 128 F/g, an energy density of 63.4 Wh/kg (at 1 A/g), and a power density of 11.0 KW/kg (at 7 A/g). |
