An attempt was made to investigate the effect of the preparation temperature on the electrocapacitive performance of polypyrrole (PPY)/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposites (PNCs). For this purpose, a series of PNCs were prepared at various temperatures by the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide-assisted dilute-solution polymerization of pyrrole in presence of GO (wt%) ranging from 1.0 to 4.0 with ferric chloride as an oxidant. The formation of the PNCs was ascertained through Fourier-transform infrared spectrometry, X-ray diffraction spectra, scanning electron microscopy and simultaneous thermogravimetric-differential scanning calorimetry. The electrocapacitive performance of the electrodes derived from sulphonated polysulphone-bound PNCs was evaluated through cyclic voltammetry with reference to Ag/AgCl at a scan rate (V/s) ranging from 0.2 and 0.001 in potassium hydroxide (1.0 M). The incorporation of GO into the PPY matrix at a reduced temperature has a pronounced effect on the electrocapacitive performance of PNCs. Under identical scan rates (0.001 V/s), PNCs prepared at $10{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ render improved specific conductivity (526.33 F/g) and power density (731.19 W/Kg) values compared to those prepared at $30{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ (217.69 F/g, 279.43 W/Kg). PNCs prepared at $10{\pm}1^{\circ}C$ rendered a capacitive retention rate of ~96% during the first 500 cycles. This indicates the excellent cyclic stability of the PNCs prepared at reduced temperatures for supercapacitor applications.

폴리이미드(polyimide) 필름 위에 은(Ag) 나노 페이스트(paste)가 인쇄된 집전체 및 활성탄소(activated carbon)를 이용하여 제조한 페이스트와 5% potassium polyacrylate (PAAK) 겔(gel) 전해질을 이용하여 슈퍼캐패시터(supercapacitor) 반쪽전지(half cell)를 제작하였다. 집전체 및 전극은 스크린 인쇄를 이용하여 제작하였으며 인쇄된 집전체의 두께는 $7.3{\mu}m$이고 면저항은 $5{\sim}7m{\Omega}/square$이다. 전극 페이스트는 비표면적 $1,968m^2/g$인 활성탄소이고 도전재는 카본 블랙(carbon black)을 사용하였으며 바인더로는 poly (4-vinylphenol)를 7:1:3 비율로 혼합하고 2-(2-buthoxyethoxy) 에틸아세테이트(BCA)를 주 용매로 사용하여 제조하였다. 전기화학적 분석을 위해 순환-전압 전류법(cyclic voltammetry)을 이용하여 전기화학적 특성과 안정도를 평가하였으며 순환-전압전류법 측정을 위한 인가 전압의 범위는 -0.5 V~0.5 V이고 주사속도(scan rate)의 범위는 10~500 mV/s로 하였다. 제작된 슈퍼캐패시터 반쪽전지의 비축전 용량은 주사속도가 10 mV/s, 500 mV/s일 때 각각 44.04 F/g, 8.62 F/g이었다.
