Preparation of Orange Peel Based Activated Carbons as Cathodes in Lithium Ion Capacitors

Abstract:

In this work, activated carbon was prepared from Indonesian local orange peel using ZnCl₂ activation method at various chemical ratios. The structural and morphological characteristics of orange peel based activated carbons were investigated using scanning electron microscope (SEM), Brunaeuer-Emmett-Teller surface analyzer. The highest surface area was estimated as 1200 m²g^-1, obtained by the mass ratio of 1:2 (biomass : ZnCl₂). The obtained carbon samples were then tested as cathodes in Lithium Ion Capacitors. Electrochemical measurement was examined by half cell configuration, using 1 M LiPF₆ in EC/EMC/DMC solution (1:1:1 v/v) as electrolyte and Li metal as reference electrode. From cyclic voltammetry (CV) test, it was shown that orange peel based activated carbon demonstrated a stable electrochemical characteristics, with specific capacitance of 56 Fg^-1 measured at scan rate of 1 mVs^-1 under cut-off voltages between 2.5 and 4 V.
