Embodiment 1

[0035] Example 1: Nickel foam current collector with vertically oriented graphene surface modification.

[0036] A pair of needle-plate electrodes are arranged in the quartz tube, the needle electrodes are connected to DC negative high voltage, and the plate electrodes are grounded. The quartz tube is placed in a temperature-controlled heating furnace, with one end ventilated and the other end open. Put the nickel foam current collector on the flat plate electrode, pass hydrogen gas into the ventilation end, and turn on the heating furnace to heat the nickel foam current collector to 700°C. After 10 minutes, the hydrogen gas was turned off and a mixed gas composed of methane, argon and water vapor was introduced, wherein the proportion of methane was 10wt%, and the relative humidity of the mixed gas was 40%. Turn on the DC negative high voltage to 10000V to form glow discharge plasma between the needle plate electrodes. After 3 minutes of discharge, turn off the DC negative ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a current collector with a surface decorated with vertical orientated grapheme. The surface of the current collector is decorated with a layer of vertical orientated grapheme nanosheets. The invention further discloses a preparation method of the current collector with the surface being decorated with the vertical oriented grapheme. According to the preparation method, a mixed gas composed of carbon source gases, indefinite form carbon etching gases and argon is used as a precursor, the method of enhancing chemical vapor deposition with plasmas is applied, and thus the current collector with the surface being decorated with the vertical orientated grapheme is obtained without adhesion agents. The surface of the current collector obtained through the preparation method is decorated with a layer of net structure composed of the vertical orientated grapheme nanosheets, edges with dense exposed grapheme are provided, therefore, the current collector can get contact with active materials thoroughly, internal resistance is reduced, the purposes of high magnification and high power density energy storage are achieved when the current collector is applied to energy storage devices such a super capacitor and a secondary battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrochemical energy storage, and in particular relates to a current collector with a vertically oriented graphene surface modification and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In electrochemical energy storage devices such as supercapacitors and secondary batteries, one of the main functions of current collectors is to concentrate and conduct the charges stored in energy storage active materials. However, due to the processing process and the microscopically rough surface of the material itself, there are only limited contact points between the traditional sheet-type current collector and the active material, which will form a shrinking diffusion resistance at the interface of the two. Larger contact resistance will hinder the charge transmission and collection, thereby affecting the energy storage rate performance and seriously reducing the power density of the energy storage device. The...
