Problems solved by technology

Theoretically, both sides of the graphene nanosheets contribute to the electrochemical capacitance, but a single graphene nanosheet as an electrode material will be re-stacked due to the van der Waals force between the graphene nanosheets, reducing the effective surface area. Utilization, reduces its electrochemical capacitance value

Embodiment 1

[0015] Disperse 310 mg of graphite oxide nanosheets in 400 mL of glycerol by ultrasonic treatment, then add 6 mL of 0.05 M ruthenium chloride solution and 1.0 mL of 1.5 mol / L sodium acetate solution, and stir and mix well. The homogeneous mixture was transferred to a microwave hydrothermal reaction kettle, heated by microwave radiation for 8 minutes, cooled, filtered, fully washed with acetone and deionized water, and dried at 90°C to obtain a graphene / Ru nanocomposite material. The ruthenium nanoparticles in the graphene / Ru nanocomposite material observed by transmission electron microscopy have a uniform particle size, with an average particle size of 2.8 nanometers. EDX analysis shows that the mass fraction of Ru in the composite is 9.8%, which is close to its theoretical value of 10%.
