A common surfactant,sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate(DBS),was employed as an organic modifier.The behavior and structure of self-assembled intercalated organic Co/Al-LDH were investigated by FTIR,SEM,WAXS,element analysis and TGA.Based upon the WAXS results and calculation by Bragg equation,the interlayer distance(d value)for organic Co/Al-LDH is enlarged from 0.75 nm to 3.10 nm,showing that the self-assembling behavior has been carried out successfully.Considering the observation from SEM, the product shows the morphology of organic Co/Al-LDH of a layered structure.In addition,FTIR,element analysis and TGA analysis show that the modifier is intercalated into the gallery of the Co/Al-LDH.Since organic modification for nanofiller is deemed to be necessary before applying it into polymer,the successful preparation of organomodified Co/Al-LDH will be significantly beneficial to the preparation and investigation of novel polymer/LDH nanocomposite.展开更多

According to the charge storage mechanism of the elec- trode, SCs are classified into electric double layer capacitors (EDLC) which store charges via static electrolyte ion adsorption/desorption, and pseudo-capacitors (PSC) which involve a faradaic redox reaction process. PSCs have attracted lots of attention recently because of their advantage of higher energy storage ability than EDLC to meet broader applications . The energy density of a PSC strongly depends on the nature of the electrode material and the material morphology.展开更多
