Abstract

In this study, of α-MnO 2 /Graphene/CNT nanocomposites were produced and characterized as electrode for Li-O 2 batteries. Graphene was produced with Hummer method and carbon nano tubes were added to graphene as spacers between layers. α - MnO 2 nanorods were synthesized and α-MnO 2 /Graphene/CNT nanocomposites were fabricated by vacuum filtration technique as a paper electrode. α - MnO 2 nanorods were added to composite at three different rates and electrodes were characterized by FESEM and XRD. The electrochemical characterization was carried out in ECC-air test cells.

Özet

Bu çalışmada Li-O 2 pilleri için elektrot malzemesi α - MnO 2 /Grafen/KNT nanokompozitleri üretilmiş ve karakterize edilmiştir. Grafen Hummer metodu ile üretilmiş ve tabakalar arası boşluk yapıcı olarak karbon nano tüp ilavesi yapılmıştır. α - MnO 2 nano çubuklar sentezlenerek α - MnO 2 /Grafen/KNT nanokompozitleri vakum filtrasyon yöntemi ile kağıt halinde elektrot olarak üretilmiştir. Üç farklı oranda ilave edilen α - MnO 2 nano çubukları ile elektrotların yapısal karakterizasyonu FESEM, XRD kullanılarak ve elektrokimyasal karakterizasyonu da ECC-hava test hücreleri ile yapılmıştır.
