摘要:Nanocomposite materials CNT/MnO2 have been fabricated as candidate of supercapacitor electrode material with a redox reaction between CNT and KMnO4 . Variations in the composition of the two materials were carried out to determine the structure, morphology and electrical properties of CNT/MnO2 with mass ratio of 0, 25, 50 and 75 %. Pattern of the crystal structure and morphology of the CNT/MnO2 nanocomposite powder were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM), while the bond pattern was characterized by FTIR. CNT/MnO2 nanocomposite powder was managed to make cylindrical pellets with diameter of 1 cm and thickness of 2 mm with variations addition of binder polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) of 10, 20 and 30%. Pellets of the material were then heated at a temperature of 70 o C for 1 hour. Resistance measurement results showed that the ratio of the mass of material CNT/MnO2 by 75% and additions by 20% PVDF binder showed the lowest resistance value. Furthermore, CNT/MnO2 supercapacitor prototype using PVDF of 20% measured with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy method showed specific capacitance of 7.86 F/gr.
