摘要
To improve the specific capacitance and rate capability of electrode material for supercapacitors, a three-dimensional graphene/polyaniline （3DGN/PANI） composite is prepared via in situ polymerization on GN hydrogel. PANI grows on the GN surface as a thin film, and its content in the composite is controlled by the concentration of the reaction monomer. The specific capacitance of the 3DGN/PANI composite containing 10 wt% PANI reaches 322.8 F.g-1 at a current density of 1 A.g-1, nearly twice as large as that of the pure 3DGN （162.8 F.g-1）. The capacitance of the composite is 307.9 F.g-1 at 30 A.g-1 （maintaining 95.4%）, and 89% retention after 500 cycles. This study demonstrates the exciting potential of 3DGN/PANI with high capacitance, excellent rate capability and long cycling life for supercapacitors.
