Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) printing technology provides a novel approach to material fabrication for various applications because of its ability to create low-cost 3D printed platforms. In this study, a printable graphene-based conductive filament was employed to create a range of 3D printed electrodes (3DEs) using a commercial 3D printer. This printing technology provides a simplistic and low-cost approach, which eliminates the need for the ex-situ modification and post-treatment of the product. The conductive nature of the 3DEs provides numerous deposition platforms for electrochemical active nanomaterials such as graphene, polypyrrole, and cadmium sulfide, either through electrochemical or physical approaches. To provide proof-of-concept, these 3DEs were physiochemically and electrochemically evaluated and proficiently fabricated into a supercapacitor and photoelectrochemical sensor. The as-fabricated supercapacitor provided a good capacitance performance, with a specific capacitance of 98.37 Fg−1. In addition, these 3DEs were fabricated into a photoelectrochemical sensing platform. They had a photocurrent response that exceeded expectations (~724.1 μA) and a lower detection limit (0.05 μM) than an ITO/FTO glass electrode. By subsequently modifying the printing material and electrode architecture, this 3D printing approach could provide a facile and rapid manufacturing process for energy devices based on the conceptual design.

Electrodeposition of Polypyrrole and Reduced Graphene Oxide onto Carbon Bundle Fibre as Electrode for Supercapacitor. NANOSCALE RESEARCH LETTERS 2017; 12:246. [PMID: 28381070 PMCID: PMC5380573 DOI: 10.1186/s11671-017-2010-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2017] [Accepted: 03/19/2017] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
A nanocomposite comprising of polypyrrole and reduced graphene oxide was electrodeposited onto a carbon bundle fibre (CBF) through a two-step approach (CBF/PPy-rGO-2). The CBF/PPy-rGO-2 had a highly porous structure compared to a nanocomposite of polypyrrole and reduced graphene oxide that was electrodeposited onto a CBF in a one-step approach (CBF/PPy-rGO), as observed through a field emission scanning electron microscope. An X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic analysis revealed the presence of hydrogen bond between the oxide functional groups of rGO and the amine groups of PPy in PPy-rGO-2 nanocomposite. The fabricated CBF/PPy-rGO-2 nanocomposite material was used as an electrode material in a symmetrical solid-state supercapacitor, and the device yielded a specific capacitance, energy density and power density of 96.16 F g- 1, 13.35 Wh kg- 1 and of 322.85 W kg- 1, respectively. Moreover, the CBF/PPy-rGO-2 showed the capacitance retention of 71% after 500 consecutive charge/discharge cycles at a current density of 1 A g- 1. The existence of a high degree of porosity in CBF/PPy-rGO-2 significantly improved the conductivity and facilitated the ionic penetration. The CBF/PPy-rGO-2-based symmetrical solid-state supercapacitor device demonstrated outstanding pliability because the cyclic voltammetric curves remained the same upon bending at various angles. Carbon bundle fibre modified with porous polypyrrole/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite for flexible miniature solid-state supercapacitor.

Abstract
A facile co-electrodeposition method has been developed to fabricate reduced graphene oxide/polypyrrole (rGO/PPy) composite films, with sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate as both a surfactant and supporting electrolyte in the precursor solution. The introduction of rGO into the PPy films forms porous structure and enhances the conductivity across the film, leading to superior electrochemical performance. By controlling the deposition time and rGO concentration, the highest area capacitance can reach 411 mF/cm2 (0.2 mA/cm2) for rGO/PPy films, whereas optimized specific capacitance is as high as 361 F/g (0.2 mA/cm2). All of the composite films exhibit excellent rate capability (at least 175 F/g at the current density of 12 mA/cm2) compared with pure PPy film (only 12 F/g at the current density of 12 mA/cm2). The rGO/PPy composite exhibits excellent cycling stability that maintains 104% of its initial capacitance after cycling for 2000 cycles and 80% for 5000 cycles. The two-electrode solid-state supercapacitor (SC) based on rGO/PPy composite electrodes demonstrates good rate performance, excellent cycling stability, as well as a high area capacitance of 222 mF/cm2. The solid-state planar SC based on the rGO/PPy composite exhibits an area capacitance of 9.4 mF/cm2, demonstrating great potential for fabrication of microsupercapacitors.
