Problems solved by technology

[0003] Aiming at the defects that carbon materials prepared by physical activation methods in the prior art are difficult to meet the application requirements of supercapacitors due to low porosity, high micropore content, and low quality, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a carbon material that utilizes low porosity and micropore ratio. High-quality low-quality activated carbon is a method of obtaining high-quality activated carbon with high porosity and high mesopore and macropore ratio through pore expansion. The low-quality activated carbon treated by this method can be applied to supercapacitors, which greatly reduces the production cost of supercapacitors , improves the supercapacitor capacity, as in Et 4 NBF 4 In the / AN system, the energy density can reach 21.67Wh / kg, and the voltage window is 2.7V, which has high application value

Embodiment 1

[0047] 1. The process of carbon dioxide activation to prepare activated carbon is as follows:

[0048] Coconut shells were selected as the carbon source of the precursor, peeled, and the main part was taken, washed several times with distilled water, dried in an oven at 120°C for 24 hours, and then crushed by a pulverizer (6000r / min, 30min). Pulverize and sieve out 325 mesh coconut shell powder. Put the carbon source in a tube furnace, raise the temperature to 900°C at 10°C / min in an argon atmosphere, perform high-temperature activation treatment in a 1L / min carbon dioxide atmosphere for 2 hours, and then lower the temperature in an argon atmosphere. The product was washed three times with 1 mol / L HCl and twice with water until neutral, then filtered and dried in vacuum at 120°C for 12 hours.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for increasing the porosity of low-quality activated carbon. The method is to first place the low-quality activated carbon in a short-chain alkane atmosphere for pyrolysis, and then place it in a reducing atmosphere for reduction. This method uses low-quality activated carbon with low porosity and high proportion of micropores to obtain high-quality activated carbon with high porosity and high proportion of mesopores and macropores through pore expansion. The low-quality activated carbon treated by this method can be used in supercapacitors. Significantly reduces the production cost of supercapacitors, and improves the capacity of supercapacitors, such as in Et 4 NBF 4 In the / AN system, the energy density can reach 21.67Wh / kg, and the voltage window is 2.7V, which has high application value.
