Human hair-derived carbon flakes for electrochemical supercapacitors

Abstract

Heteroatom doped porous carbon flakes were prepared via carbonization of Chinese human hair fibers and employed for high-performance supercapacitor electrode materials. The morphology and chemical composition of the resultant carbon materials were characterized by electron microscopy (EM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements. Human hair carbonized at 800 °C exhibited high charge storage capacity with a specific capacitance of 340 F g−1 in 6 M KOH at a current density of 1 A g−1 and good stability over 20 000 cycles. The specific capacitance of 126 F g−1 is also verified in a 1 M LiPF6 ethylene carbonate/diethyl carbonate (EC/DEC) organic electrolyte at a current density of 1 A g−1. The high supercapacitor performance could be due to the micro/mesoporosity combined with high effective surface area and heteroatom doping effects, combining double layer and Faradaic contributions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
