Electro-exfoliating graphene from graphite for direct fabrication of supercapacitor
A facile production of graphene via electro-exfoliation is demonstrated using different types of oxidizing agent (HNO3, NaNO3, H2SO4 and H2O2) in the presence of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate as a surfactant. Different types of surfactant–oxidizing agent solutions in different concentrations signif...

সংক্ষিপ্ত: | A facile production of graphene via electro-exfoliation is demonstrated using different types of oxidizing agent (HNO3, NaNO3, H2SO4 and H2O2) in the presence of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate as a surfactant. Different types of surfactant–oxidizing agent solutions in different concentrations significantly influenced the electrochemical exfoliation of graphite rod. The surface morphology, layer thickness and defects of the as-produced graphene are further evaluated. Additionally, the as-produced graphene is fabricated as a supercapacitor electrode via direct vacuum filtration. Nylon membrane and polymer gel, each containing 2.0 M of potassium hydroxide, are utilized to investigate the influence of the electrolyte type on the capacitance performance. Upon 1000 charge/discharge cycles, the nylon membrane electrolyte recorded capacitance retention of 94%, whereas the polymer gel electrolyte recorded an impressive capacitance retention that exceeded 100%. The potential of the fabricated supercapacitor for real applications is manifested by its ability to light up a light-emitting diode upon charging. |
