Fabrication Of Binder-Free Electrodes Based On Graphene Oxide With Cnt For Decrease Of Resistance, Di Zhang
Masters Theses
In electrode double layer capacitor (EDLC), electrodes usually contain binder materials to provide adhesion between electrode materials. However, binder materials usually bring unwanted resistances to the component due to their non-conductivity properties and the occupation of ion cavities. The purpose of this thesis is to demonstrate the feasibility of fabricating electrodes for EDLCs by using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene oxide (GO) without using any binding materials. At the same time, investigating the binder-free electrode’s electrochemical properties and make an assumption of its potential application in the future.
The slurry of binder-free electrodes was fabricated by ultrasonicating water suspended CNTs …
