초록

본 연구에서는 헥사 메틸렌 테트라민을 촉매로 사용하여 이소프로판올에서 레소시놀과 퍼푸랄을 졸-겔 중축합한 후 이소프로판올 동결 건조 조건에서 유기 겔을 직접 건조시킨 후 질소 분위기에서 탄화시켜 탄소 에어로겔을 제조하였다. 탄소 에어로겔의 제조 조건은 퍼푸랄에 대한 레소시놀의 몰비를 변경하여 조사하였다. 탄소에어로겔의 기공 구조에 대한 제조조건의 영향은 질소 흡착 등온선에 의해 고찰하였다. 탄소 에어로겔의 특성은 주사전자현미경과 적외선 분광법을 가지고 측정하였다. 전기 이중층 커패시터에서 전극으로서의 탄소 에어로겔의 기공 접근성과 성능을 전기 화학적으로 고찰하였다. 결과적으로 BET 표면적과 비용량은 R/C 비율에 따라 증가하였으며, 765 ㎡/g 및 132 F/g의 최대 값은 각각 R/C 비율 200에서 달성되었다. 결론적으로 R/C 비율을 높이면 CA 전극의 평균 기공 크기가 증가하여 시스템의 속도 성능이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

In this study, carbon aerogels (CA) were prepared by sol-gel polycondensation of resorcinol and furfural in isopropanol using hexamethylenetetramine as a catalyst, and then directly drying the organic gels under isopropanol freeze-drying conditions, followed by carbonization under a nitrogen atmosphere. The preparation conditions of the CA were explored by changing the mole ratio of resorcinol to furfural. The effect of the preparation conditions on the pore structure of the CA was studied by nitrogen adsorption isotherms. The characteristics of the CA were studied by scanning and transition electron microscopy, and infrared spectrometry. The accessibility of pores and performance of the CA as an electrode in electric double layer capacitors were also electrochemically investigated. As a result, BET surface area and specific capacitance increased with the molar ratio of resorcinol to catalyst (R/C) ratio; the maximum values of 765 ㎡/g and 132 F/g were achieved at the R/C ratio of 200, respectively. Consequently, it was confirmed that increasing the R/C ratio increased the average pore size of the CA electrode, which improved the rate capability of the system.
