Abstract:

4-(3-(Pyrrol-1-yl) butyric acid base)-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin (Py-B-TEMPO) was synthesized by etherification reaction of 4-hydroxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yloxy. And the polymer of its monomer was prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization and the chemical structure and battery performance of the prepared materials were characterized comparably by Mass spectrometry, 1H NMR, FT-IR spectra and galvanostatic charge-discharge testing using simulant lithium ion half-cell method, respectively. The results shows that the introduction of the TEMPO group to the pyrrole could prevent the polymer from agglomeration and optimize the particle morphology of the resulting polymers, all of which made it demonstrate a significantly improved specific capacity of 86.5 mAh·g-1 (99% of the theoretical capacity) compared with PPy (21.7 mAh·g-1). Moreover, it gives an obvious voltage plateau of nearly 3.5 V which is comparable to the redox potential of TEMPO.
