BORIDE BASED MATERIALS FOR SUPERCAPACITOR ELECTRODES

This research focuses on the synthesis of metal borides using a cost-efficient, solution-based approach for application in supercapacitor electrodes. The powders are synthesized from boric acid and metal precursors and are characterized for their structural and morphological features through techniques such as XRD, FE-SEM, EDS, DTA-TG, FTIR, Raman, and EPR. Electrochemical testing is carried out using a Parstat MC multi-channel potentiostat, with the metal borides serving as electrodes in symmetric and asymmetric device setups. In asymmetric configurations, graphite or multilayer carbon nanotube powders are used as the complementary electrode. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) results highlight the superior capacitive performance of the materials, showcasing their promise for energy storage and microdevice applications in modern electronics.
