METHOD FOR SYNTHESIZING ELECTRODE MATERIALS FOR SUPER-CAPACITORS

Abstract

ABSTRACT A method 100 for synthesizing electrode materials for super-capacitors, comprising the steps of carbonizing coconut shells to obtain biochar, synthesizing MnMoO4 by mixing MnCl2 and (NH4)6Mo7O24 in an aqueous solution, followed by calcination and combining biochar with MnMoO4 to form a composite electrode material. <>

Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] This invention generally relates to a field of electrochemical energy storage, specifically to methods for synthesizing electrode materials and separators for super-capacitors to enhance power density, energy density, and cycling stability.
BACKGROUND

[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] With the rapid depletion of fossil fuels, the need for efficient and sustainable energy storage devices, such as super-capacitors, is increasingly critical. Super-capacitors are known for their r , Claims:WE CLAIM:
1. A method 100 for synthesizing electrode materials for super-capacitors, comprising the steps of:
carbonizing coconut shells to obtain biochar;
synthesizing MnMoO4 by mixing MnCl2 and (NH4)6Mo7O24 in an aqueous solution, followed by calcination; and
combining biochar with MnMoO4 to form a composite electrode material.

2. The method 100 as claimed in claim 1, wherein the biochar is carbonized at 600 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere.
