Abstract

Polypyrrole (PPy) was made by an emulsion polymerization using iron (III) chloride ($FeCl_3$) as an initiator and dodecyl benzene sulfuric acid (DBSA) as an emulsifier and dopant. Poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO) was sulfonated by chlorosulfonic acid (CSA). The cathode was composed of $PPy^+DBS^-$ complex, conductor powder, and PPO or sulfonated poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (SPPO) as a binder or dopant. The charge-discharge performance of $PPy^+DBS^-/SPPO$ cathode was increased as the extent of about 50%, than $PPy^+DBS^-/PPO$. This is because SPPO played a role as a binder as well as a dopant. In addition, sulfonation brings out the increase of miscibility between PPy and SPPO, and the increase of contact area between cathode and electrolyte.

[ $PPy^+DBS^-$ ] 복합체는 유화중합에 의해 제조되었고 이때 iron(III) chloride($FeCl_3$)는 개시제로, dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid(DBSA)는 계면활성제 및 도판트로 사용되었다. Poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO)는 chlorosulfonic acid(CSA)를 사용하여 설폰화되었고 양극은 $PPy^+DBS^-$ 복합체, 도전제 그리고 바인더로 구성되며 이때 바인더로 PPO와 설폰화된 poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (SPPO)를 사용하였다. $PPy^+DBS^-/SPPO$ 양극은 $PPy^+DBS^-/PPO$에 비해 약 50% 높은 충 방전 성능을 나타내었는데 이는 SPPO가 바인더뿐만 아니라 도판트로 작용했기 때문이다. 더욱이 바인더로 사용된 고분자의 설폰화는 전도성 고분자와의 coulombic attraction을 유발시켜 두 상간의 혼화성을 증가시켰을 뿐만 아니라 양극과 전해질 사이의 접촉면적을 증가시켜 전기화학적으로 우수한 성능을 나타나게 했다.
