Cross-linked carbon network with hierarchical porous structure for high performance solid-state electrochemical capacitor

摘要

The development of portable electronics strongly requires flexible, lightweight, and inexpensive energy storage devices with high power density, long cycling stability, and high reliability. In this work, we prepare a flexible solid-state electrochemical capacitor using cross-linked hierarchical porous carbon network as electrode material via electrospinning and carbonization process. This device can reversibly deliver a maximum energy density of 10.18 W h/kg with excellent cycling stability which achieves 95% capacitance retention after 20000 charge/discharge cycles. Moreover, it also demonstrates outstanding mechanical flexibility and excellent capacitance retention even when the device is repeatedly bended 10000 cycles under 90 degrees. All of these results suggest its promising perspective in flexible energy storage device. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
