Pembuatan Dan Karakterisasi Elektroda Berbasis Karbon Aktif Mesokarp Buah Bintaro Untuk Aplikasi Sel Superkapasitor
Supercapacitor is an energy storage device that has the ability to store energy and
power on a large scale. The Supercapacitor is composed of several components,
such as current collectors, separators, electrolytes, and electrodes. The electrode is
one of the important components in supercapacitors cells. A production of
activated carbon made from mesocarp of Bintaro fruit as a supercapacitor cell
electrode has been successfully. Activated carbon electrodes were prepared
through a pre-carbonization process, chemical with KOH 0.5 M activator,
carbonization process using N2 gas and physical activation using CO2 gas. In this
study, the physical activation process was carried out with temperature variations
of 650oC, 750oC, 850oC and 950oC which of KAMBB-650, KAMBB-750,
KAMBB-850 and KAMBB-950 respectively. Microstructure analysis shows
amorphous structure for the carbon electrodes which is by the presence of peaks at
an angel of 2 around 24o and 44o. The increasing physical activation cause
smaller Lc high specific capasitance. In this study, the optimum temperature
obtained in 850oC of KAMBB-850 sample. High specific capacitance as high as
267,6 F/g was found on KAMBB-850. The lowest capacitance obtained at
carbonization temperature 650oC of KAMBB-650 sample with specific
capacitance as high as 134,1 F/g.
