Abstract
The supercapacitive properties of the polythiophene (PTh) and its composites with iron dust synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization are investigated. The UV–Vis, FTIR, TGA, XRD, SEM, and EDX were used to characterize the composites. Iron (Fe) dust is inserted into PTh matrix as confirmed by FTIR, UV–Vis, EDX, and XRD analysis. The TGA shows that composites have higher thermal stability than pure PTh. The SEM reveals highly porous and packed morphology of the composites as compared to pure PTh. Cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge–discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) show that a 1:1 ratio by mass of PTh and Fe composite displayed greater specific capacitance than pure PTh. The high specific capacitance of the composite material (428.46 F/g at 1 A/g) suggested that the material is suitable for supercapacitor electrode. Cyclic stability is also tested for 1000 cycles at a current density of 1 A/g with excellent retention of 88.89%.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry is devoted to all aspects of solid-state chemistry and solid-state physics in electrochemistry.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry publishes papers on all aspects of electrochemistry of solid compounds, including experimental and theoretical, basic and applied work. It equally publishes papers on the thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical reactions if at least one actively participating phase is solid. Also of interest are articles on the transport of ions and electrons in solids whenever these processes are relevant to electrochemical reactions and on the use of solid-state electrochemical reactions in the analysis of solids and their surfaces.
The journal covers solid-state electrochemistry and focusses on the following fields: mechanisms of solid-state electrochemical reactions, semiconductor electrochemistry, electrochemical batteries, accumulators and fuel cells, electrochemical mineral leaching, galvanic metal plating, electrochemical potential memory devices, solid-state electrochemical sensors, ion and electron transport in solid materials and polymers, electrocatalysis, photoelectrochemistry, corrosion of solid materials, solid-state electroanalysis, electrochemical machining of materials, electrochromism and electrochromic devices, new electrochemical solid-state synthesis.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry makes the professional in research and industry aware of this swift progress and its importance for future developments and success in the above-mentioned fields.
