SnO2-Decorated Graphene/Polyaniline Nanocomposite for a High-Performance Supercapacitor Electrode

doi:10.1016/j.jmst.2015.09.013

Abstract

Abstract:

An SnO₂-decorated graphene/polyaniline (GSP) nanocomposite with homogeneous structure was prepared and adopted to achieve high electrochemical performance for supercapacitor electrode.Graphene sheets were decorated with tin dioxide (SnO₂) particles, which effectively hinder the restacking of graphene nanosheets, and then were used as substrates for an in-situ polymerization of aniline monomers.The GSP nanocomposite was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared, UV-Visible and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The results revealed that polyaniline nanorods were orderly and vertically aligned on the SnO₂-decorated graphene nanosheets via π-π stacking effect between basal planes of graphene nanosheets and phenyl group of polyaniline.The GSP nanocomposite exhibited an excellent specific capacitance of 429 F g^-1 at a current density of 1 A g^-1, excellent cycling stability and rate capability, which suggested a promising application for supercapacitor.
