Abstract
Electrical charge storing electrodes and their surface modification are intensively investigated to improve the charge storability indicators in electrochemical energy storage devices. Here, the effects of a thin chemisorbed polyaniline (PANI) film on the charge storage behavior of rod-shaped spinal-type cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanorods (PANI@Co3O4) are detailed for fabrication of battery–supercapacitor hybrid (BSH) devices. The PANI@Co3O4 showed larger surface area and optimum porosity properties, which contributed to ∼50 % enhanced specific charge than that in the Co3O4. The deconvoluted total charge storage gain showed more contribution to the bulk-diffusion controlled process (battery-type), lower ion transport resistance and Warburg impedance in the PANI@Co3O4 electrode than that in the Co3O4. Two-sets of BSH devices are fabricated using PANI@Co3O4 as a positive electrode and mesoporous carbon (MC) and activated carbon (AC) negative electrodes in an aqueous electrolyte and benchmarked with symmetric supercapacitors fabricated using the two carbons. The PANI@Co3O4//MC device showed nearly two-fold higher specific energy (ES) than that of PANI@Co3O4//AC. Interestingly, AC//AC symmetric supercapacitors showed two-fold higher ES than the MC//MC device. Origin of differences in the charge storage behavior of the two types of devices are systematically analyzed and reported.
