Problems solved by technology

[0004] Conventional activated carbon is generally prepared from coal. Due to the high impurity ash content of coal, the activated carbon has high impurity ash content, low specific surface area, poor adsorption performance, and poor electrochemical performance, which directly affects the application of activated carbon in many fields. application
In addition, KOH is mostly used as the activator in the preparation of activated carbon, which increases the corrosion of the activation equipment, increases the production cost, and is not conducive to its wide application.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing supercapacitor-dedicated active carbon by using mixed molten salts as an activator. According to the method, asphalt or coal tar which is used as a raw material is uniformly mixed with mixed molten salts; under protection of argon or nitrogen, the mixture is placed in a carbonization furnace to be carbonized; and finally, the carbonized product is crushed, washed and dried to obtain active carbon.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing activated carbon for supercapacitors by using mixed molten salt as an activator. Background technique [0002] The industrial production and application of activated carbon has a long history. The activated carbon material is not amorphous carbon in the general sense, nor is it completely crystalline carbon like diamond, but has a layered structure similar to the basic microcrystals of graphite. Activated carbon is mainly carbon, combined with hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, etc., and has good adsorption effect. Activated carbon has a wide range of sources, high specific surface area, excellent electrical conductivity, excellent chemical stability and low expansion coefficient, and can be made into various forms according to needs, making it widely used in liquid phase adsorption, Gas phase adsorption, catalysts and their carriers, blood purification, car canisters and other fields, and become the most used ...
