Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of alternating current filter material preparation. FeNi nano cone arrays are prepared by electrodeposition method, and their filter performance is tested and analyzed to verify their application potential in the field of alternating current filtering. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous development of modern electronic equipment, people's performance requirements for supercapacitors are gradually increasing. Filtered supercapacitors, as an application branch of supercapacitors, have higher requirements for the rapid response capability of the device. In order to realize the performance of the filtered supercapacitor, it is necessary to ensure that the material has small resistance and fast ion transport channel, and at the same time has large specific surface area. At present, the electrode material of the filtered supercapacitor mainly includes carbon nanomaterials with high surface area, but due to the poor conductivity of carbon materials and the complex three-dimensional structure, the distance of ion movement in the material is prolonged, and the frequency response performance of the material is reduced.

[0003] Metal nanocone, as a one-dimensional nanomaterial with high-curvature structure of sharp tip, has good conductivity and unique physical properties. Designing the electrode into the morphology of nanocone can expose more active sites, and more importantly, after applying voltage to the metal nanocone, the sharp tip effect of the nanocone will form a high-intensity local electric field at the top. This effect can accelerate the transmission of ions and charges, thereby improving the rapid response capability of the material. Based on the above unique properties of metal nanocone in electrochemistry, we judge that the application of FeNi nanocone structure material to the field of alternating current filtered supercapacitors has certain research prospects. SUMMARY

[0004] This paper explores the possibility of FeNi nanocone material for alternating current filtered supercapacitors, introduces FeNi nanocone, a nanomaterial with unique electrochemical properties, into the filtering field, and provides a new idea for preparing filtered electrode materials with fast response performance.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the electrodeposition temperature, electrodeposition time and electrodeposition current density need to be controlled:

[0006] The electrodeposition temperature requirement must be controlled within 65-80℃, and oil bath heating is required, and the liquid is heated for more than 4 hours before deposition to convert the substance, and the same temperature is maintained during deposition.

[0007] The electrodeposition time requirement is controlled between 5-15min to ensure that the electrode will not affect the electrode performance due to the thick solid layer.

[0008] The electrodeposition current density requirement is controlled between 20-30mA cm-2 thereby regulating the curvature of the FeNi nanotaper.

[0009] Synthesis of FeNi nanotaper structure for electrochemical filtering, comprising the following steps:

[0010] Step 1, FeNi nanotaper electrodeposition liquid configuration: take 50ml deionized water, add 10g NiCl2·6H2O, 2.01g H3BO3, 4.9g NH4Cl, 2g FeCl2·4H2O into the inner, ultrasonic dispersion for 2h to configure the deposition liquid.

[0011] Step 2, FeNi nanotaper electrodeposition preparation: immerse the beaker containing the deposition liquid into the oil bath pot, set the oil bath temperature to 65-80℃, power supply with direct current power supply in the two electrode system, use platinum sheet as the counter electrode, titanium sheet as the anode, control the current density to 10-30mA cm -2 , control the deposition time to 5-15min, make the FeNi nanotaper grow on the surface of the titanium sheet, after the reaction, immerse the titanium sheet with grown FeNi nanotaper into deionized water for soaking and cleaning, and dry to prepare the sample. Under different electrodeposition temperature, current density and electrodeposition time, the nanotaper structure electrode with different morphology can be obtained.

[0012] Step 3, assembly of FeNi nanotaper supercapacitor: cut the FeNi nanotaper electrode into a piece with the size of 1.5*2cm, place symmetrically, add a piece of glass fiber diaphragm in the middle, drop 2-3 drops of 1M Na2SO4 electrolyte, and package with the tablet press to obtain the FeNi nanotaper supercapacitor.

[0013] The innovation points and positive effects of the present application are as follows:

[0014] The feasibility of FeNi nanocone structure for AC filtering is studied by analyzing the FeNi nanocone structure and the electrochemical performance of the FeNi nanocone structure under the filtering parameters. Thanks to the particularity of the surface morphology of the FeNi nanocone, it is creatively used in the field of AC filtering, and the performance is combined with the expectation, which shows the potential in the application of AC filtering. The rich high-curvature structure on the surface of the FeNi nanocone can produce an enhanced electric field environment, promote the rapid transfer of ions near the cone, and due to the open structure of its surface, the ions will not be blocked, and after applying voltage, the FeNi nanocone can produce an electric field about 4 times higher than the plane structure, which means that the nanocone array structure has a natural advantage in filtering and can meet the rapid response required by AC filtering. At the same time, in-situ deposition makes the FeNi nanocone closely contact with the substrate, and the interface resistance is small, which ensures that the supercapacitor has a small equivalent series resistance. The supercapacitor based on the FeNi nanocone array shows a high impedance phase angle of -79.4° and a low relaxation time constant of 0.70 ms at 120 Hz, and at the same time, the device has a specific capacitance of 86.8 μFcm -2 and a low equivalent series resistance of 0.68 Ω, which shows good electrochemical performance of the device. In addition, we test the filtering performance of the device at a frequency of 60 Hz, and the results show that the FeNi nanocone supercapacitor can effectively convert AC signals into DC signals, and the ripple coefficient is only 5.2%, which fully illustrates the good AC filtering performance of the device. The present application provides a new idea for the application of metal nanocone structure in the field of AC filtering. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
