- Abstract
- Due to the lower cost and greater natural abundance of the sodium element on the earth than those of the lithium element, sodium-based ionic gel polymer electrolytes (IGPEs) are becoming a more cost-effective and popular material choice for portable and stationary energy solutions. The sodium-based IGPEs, however, appeared relatively inferior to their lithium-based counterparts for use in high-performance microsupercapacitors in terms of ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability. To tackle these issues, poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA) with fast polymerization to build a polymer matrix and sodium perchlorate (NaClO4) with high chemical stability and high thermal stability are employed to generate free ions for an ionic conducting phase with the support of tetramethylene glycol ether (G4) and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(triflouromethylsulfonyl)imide (EMIM-TFSI). It was found that the ionic conductivity (sigma(dc)) of this sodium-based IGPE reaches up to 0.54 mS/cm at room temperature. To manifest a high-conductivity sodium-based IGPE (SIGPE), a microsupercapacitor (MSC) with an area of 5 mm(2) is designed and fabricated on an interdigital reduced graphene oxide electrode. This MSC demonstrates prominent performance with a high power density of similar to 2500 W/kg and a maximum energy density of similar to 0.7 Wh/kg. Furthermore, after 20,000 cycles at an operating potential window from 0.0 to 1.0 V, it retains approximately 98.9% capacitance. An MSC array in 3 series x 3 parallels (3S x 3P) was successfully designed as a power source for a basic circuit with an LED. Therefore, we believe that our sodium-based IGPE microsupercapacitor holds its promising role as a solid-state energy source for high-performance and high-stability energy solutions.
