본 연구에서는 "이온젤"이라고 불리는 고분자 기반의 PVA(polyvinyl alcohol)-$H_3PO_4$의 고체 전해질에 이온성 액체 $BMIMBF_4$ (1-buthyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate)를 첨가하여 제조한 전고체 전해질과 환원된 그래핀 옥사이드/전도성 고분자 복합재료 기반의 전극 재료를 이용하여 유연성을 갖는 슈퍼커패시터를 제작 하였으며, 유연성에 따른 전기화학적 특성을 분석하여 보았다. 환원된 그래핀 옥사이드/전도성 고분자 복합재료와 전고체 전해질 기반의 유연성 슈퍼커패시터의 전기화학적 특성을 유연성에 따라서 측정하기 위해서 프레스로 $0.01kg/cm^2$의 일정한 압력으로 최대 100회 까지 굽힘 시험(bending test)을 진행 하였으며, 0~100 회의 굽힘 시험 이후에 순환 전압전류법(CV), 전기화학적 임피던스 분광법(EIS) 및 전정류 충 방전법(GCD)을 통하여 비교 및 분석하여 보았다. 그 결과로, 유연성 슈퍼커패시터의 초기 전기용량은 43.9 F/g으로 확인 할 수 있었고, 이 값은 50회, 100회의 굽힘 시험 후에 각각 42.0F/g, 40.1F/g로 감소하는 현상을 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과로 미루어 보아 물리적인 응력이 슈퍼 커패시터의 전기화학적 특성 감소에 영향을 주는 것으로 사료되며 또한, 굽힘 횟수에 따른 슈퍼커패시터의 전기화학적 특성 감소 원인을 확인하기 위해서 굽힘 시험 전과 후의 전극표면을 전자주사 현미경으로 관찰하여 보았다.

A hybrid supercapacitor (HS) is an energy storage device used to enhance the low weight energy density (Wh/kg) of a supercapacitor. On the other hand, a sudden decrease in capacity has been pointed out as a reliability problem after many charge/discharge cycles. The reliability problem of a HS affects the early aging process. In this study, the capacity performance of a HS was observed after charge/discharge. For detailed analysis of the initial charge/discharge cycles, the charge and discharge curve was measured at a low current density. In addition, a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer was confirmed after the charge/discharge. A HC composed of a lithium titanate (LTO) anode and active carbon cathode was used. The charge/discharge efficiency of the first cycle was lower than the late cycles and the charge/discharge rate was also lower. This behavior was induced by SEI layer formation, which consumed Li ions in the LTO lattice. The formation of a SEI layer after the charge/discharge cycles was confirmed using a range of analysis techniques.

In the research fields of energy storage, and more specifically of supplying high powers, electrochemical supercapacitor have been among the most studied systems for many years. One of the possible applications is in electric vehicles. We have been working on electronically conducting polymers for use as active materials for electrodes in supercapacitors. These polymers have the ability of doping and undoping with rather fast kinetics and have an excellent capacity for energy storage. polythiophene (Pth) and polyparafluorophenylthiophene (PFPT) have been chemically synthesized for use as active materials in supercapacitor electrodes. Electrochemical characterization has been performed by cyclic voltammetry and an electrode study has been achieved to get the maximun capacity out of the polymers and give good cyclability. specific capacity values of 7mAh/g and 40mAh/g were obtained for PFPT and poly thiophene, respectively. Supercapacitors have been built to characterize this type of system. Energy storage levels of 260F/g were obtained with Pth and 110F/g with PFPT.

Poly(1', 4'-phenylene-1", 4"-(2"-(2""-ethyl-hexyloxy)) phenylene-1",4"-phenylene-2,5-oxadiazolyl) (PPEPPO) was synthesized and its electrochemical characteristics was investigated as electrode material in redox supercapacitor. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) shows there was scarcely a redox reaction and further suggests n-doping is difficult to occur in this system. However, the discharge curve between 3.0 to 0.01 V is continuously decreased like a straight line, similar to the discharge pattern of EDLC. The initial specific discharge capacitance is ~6.4 F/g, while the specific capacitance of 1000th cycle is ~0.1 F/g. The PPEPPO can be used as the electrode of supercapacitor, emissive material, as well as charge-transporting material in polymer LED.ansporting material in polymer LED.

Composite material of the graphene ball (GB) inserted graphene oxide (GO) sheet for a supercapacitor electrode was studied. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process used to make GBs on the silicon oxide nanoparticles. The GBs mixed into the GO sheets to make GOGB and reduced it to create a reduced GOGB(RGOGB) composite. The RGOGB composite electrode had a large surface area and improved electrochemical properties. Specific capacitance of the RGBGO composite electrode was higher over 20 times than a pure GO and GOGB electrode in cyclic voltammetry(CV) tests, and the Z' and Z" impedance measured by an electrochemical impedance spectrometry(EIS) also low. So, the RGBGO composite electrode would use effectively to expand a performance of supercapacitor.

Electrochemical characterization was conducted on poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-ceramic composite (PVA-CC) separators for supercapacitor applications. The PVA-CC separators were fabricated by mixing various ceramic particles including aluminum oxide ($Al_2O_3$), silicon dioxide ($SiO_2$), and titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) into a PVA aqueous solution. These ceramic particles help to create amorphous regions in the crystalline structure of the polymer matrix to increase the ionic conductivity of PVA. Supercapacitors were assembled using PVA-CC separators with symmetric activated carbon electrodes and electrochemical characterization showed enhanced specific capacitance, rate capability, cycle life, and ionic conductivity. Supercapacitors using the $PVA-TiO_2$ composite separator showed particularly good electrochemical performance with a 14.4% specific capacitance increase over supercapacitors using the bare PVA separator after 1000 cycles. With regards to safety, PVA becomes plasticized when immersed in 6 M KOH aqueous solution, thus there was no appreciable loss in tear resistance when the ceramic particles were added to PVA. Thus, the enhanced electrochemical properties can be attained without reduction in safety making the addition of ceramic nanoparticles to PVA separators a cost-effective strategy for increasing the ionic conductivity of separator materials for supercapacitor applications.

The objective of this study was to design and model the PEM fuel cell excavator with supercapacitor/battery hybrid power source to increase efficiency as well as eliminate greenhouse gas emission. With this configuration, the system can get rid of the internal combustion engine, which has a low efficiency and high emission. For the analysis and simulation, the governing equations of the PEM system, the supercapacitor and battery were derived. These simulations were performed in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The hydraulic modeling of the excavator was also presented, and its model implemented in AMESim and studied. The whole system model was built in a co-simulation environment, which is a combination of MATLAB/Simulink and AMESim software. The simulation results were presented to show the performance of the system.

수퍼커패시터는 다양한 응용범위를 갖는 유망한 에너지 저장장치로서 활발히 연구되고 있으며, 에너지 밀도 향상을 위하여 이온성 액체의 적용이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 4급화 반응과 음이온 교환반응을 거쳐 4급 imidazolium 염을 생성하는 반응으로 두 종류의 EMI-$BF_4$를 합성하였다. $^1H$-NMR을 통하여 EMI-$BF_4$의 합성을 확인하였고 TGA를 통하여 열적안정성을 확인하였으며, 이때 합성된 이온성 액체를 열처리한 경우 열적 안정성이 향상되었다. LSV를 통하여 본 연구에서 합성한 EMI-$BF_4$가 4 V 이상의 넓은 전위창을 가지고 있어, 기존의 전해질 대비 우수한 전기화학적 안정성을 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 충방전 실험 결과 본 실험에서 합성한 이온성 액체를 상용화 제품과 비교한 경우 용량은 각각 0.067 F 및 0.073 F로 측정되었다.

Recently, there has been an increasing interest in the use of graphene as electrode materials for supercapacitors. In this regard, graphene oxide (GO) films were prepared using GO slurry obtained by dispersing GO powder in deionized (DI) water. The degree of dispersion of GO powder in DI water depends on the concentration of GO slurry, pH, impurity content, GO particle size, types of functional groups contained in GO, and manufacturing method of GO powder. In this study, the dispersivity of the GO powder was improved by adjusting the pH using only DI water (without additives), and a uniform GO film was obtained. The GO film was reduced by exposure to xenon intense pulsed light for a few milliseconds, and the reduced GO film was used as electrodes of a supercapacitor. The supercapacitor was characterized using cyclic voltammetry (CV), charge-discharge cycle, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements, and the specific capacitance of the supercapacitor was found to be ~140 F/g from the CV data.
