چکیده
در بین مواد فعال مختلف، هیدروکسید نیکل یکی از مستعدترین و باقابلیت ترین مواد شبه خازنی است؛ ولی عملکرد الکتروشیمیایی آن به دلیل هدایت الکتریکی پایین و پایداری ضعیف محدود شده است. برای غلبه بر این مشکل، راهکارهای متعددی ازجمله کامپوزیت کردن آن با مواد هادی الکتریسیته مانند ذرات فلزی، انواع مواد کربنی و بسپارهای رسانا، وجود دارد. همچنین، حذف چسب بسپار نارسانای مورد استفاده در ساخت الکترود می تواند سبب کاهش مقاومت داخلی الکترود شده و درنتیجه منجر به بهبود عملکرد ذخیره سازی انرژی در آن شود. در این تحقیق، از یک روش نو، ساده و کارآمد برای تهیه الکترود بدون چسب هیدروکسید نیکل استفاده شده است که شامل رسوب نشانی شیمیایی لایه به لایه نانوذرات هیدروکسید نیکل با فاز بتا بر سطح فوم نیکل می باشد. مشخصه یابی ساختار و ریخت شناسی سطحی الکترود تهیه شده با استفاده از پراش پرتوی ایکس، طیفسنجی مادونقرمز تبدیل فوریه (FTIR) و میکروسکوپ الکترونی روبشی گسیل میدانی (FESEM) مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. همچنین، عملکرد ذخیره سازی انرژی الکترود ابرخازنی تهیه شده با استفاده از روش های ولتامتری چرخ های و شارژ-تخلیه جریان ثابت مورد ارزیابی قرار گرفت. بهطورخلاصه، الکترود تهیه شده دارای ظرفیت ویژه 767 فاراد بر گرم در چگالی جریان تخلیه 1 آمپر بر گرم و پایداری چرخ های 6/90 درصد پس از 1000 چرخه می باشد.

چکیده [English]
Among different active materials, nickel hydroxide is one of the most promising pseudocapacitive materials; however, its electrochemical performance is notably restricted because of its low conductivity and weak stability. To overcome these drawbacks, several solutions were suggested including making it composite with electrically conductive materials such as metal particles, various carbon materials, and conductive polymers. In addition, removing the insulating polymer binder used in the electrode prepration can reduce the internal resistance of the electrode, thus leading to improvement in its energy storage performance. In this research, a novel, facile, and efficient approach was developed to prepare a binder-free nickel hydroxide electrode, which includes the layer-by-layer chemical deposition of nickel hydroxide nanoparticles with β-phase structure on the nickel foam. The structural characterization and surface morphology of the as-prepared electrode was investigated using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM). Further, the energy storage performance of the prepared supercapacitor electrode was evaluated using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge-discharge techniques. The prepared electrode showed a specific capacitance of 767 F g-1 at the discharge current density of 1 A g-1 and cyclic stability of 91.4 % after 1000 cycles.
