Direct carbonization of cellulose toward hydroxyl-rich porous carbons for pseudocapacitive energy storage

Designing carbon materials with specific oxygen-containing functional groups is very attractive for the precise decoration of carbon electrode materials and the basic understanding of specific charge storage mechanisms, which contributes to the further development of high-performance carbon materials for energy storage and conversion applications. In this contribution, a hydroxyl-rich micropore-dominated porous carbon material was obtained by direct carbonization of cellulose. The content of oxygen atoms in hydroxyl form in the obtained carbon is nearly 6 at.%. With the pyrolysis temperature changed, the macroscopic morphology, the specific surface area, surface functional groups, and graphitization degree of the carbon materials were changed strongly. Besides, the carbon material obtained with a carbonization temperature of 900 °C (C9) showed enhanced specific capacitance in sulfuric acid, sodium hydroxide, and sodium sulfate aqueous electrolytes, which mainly originates from the contribution of pseudocapacitance. The pseudocapacitance mainly depends on the presence of surface hydroxyl functional groups. Besides, the pseudocapacitance value of C9 material in neutral electrolytes (151.34 F g-1) is about twice that in acidic (75.9 F g-1) and alkaline (75.78 F g-1) electrolytes.
