摘要

Bamboo-activated carbon (AC-BBC) achieved improved electrochemical properties by compositing it with reduced graphene oxide (rGO) at 1, 3, 5, and 7% weight (wt%). The AC-BBC samples were prepared by annealing bamboo carbon (BBC) powder and a KOH mixture through flowing argon at 900 °C. It was pulverized and mixed using high-speed three-dimensional (3-D) ball milling. rGOx%/3D-AC-BBC (x = 1, 3, 5, and 7 wt%) samples, which are referred to as AC-BBC composites with x% rGO ground by 3-D ball milling, were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and Raman spectroscopy techniques. Analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and specific surface area (SSA) revealed that the rGO5%/3D-AC-BBC sample exhibited the highest specific surface area (SSA), 2239.80 m²/g, with an average pore size of 2.22 nm. Half-cell electrodes had the greatest specific capacities, 301.80 F/g at 0.5 A/g. The symmetric supercapacitor coil cell device showed a capacitance of 85.93 F/g, an energy density of 11.93 Wh/kg, and a power density of 49.56 W/kg. The efficiency retention was reduced to 96.76% after 10,000 cycles. This manuscript presents a high-performance rGO5%/3D-AC-BBC material that can be used for active electrodes to enhance electrochemical properties, making them suitable for electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) applications.
