Multifunctional graphene hydrogels have attracted great attention aimed at practical applications. Herein, the novel and bifunctional composite hydrogel containing reduced graphene-oxide nanosheets (RGO) and V2O5 nanobelts (RGO/V2O5) is successfully prepared for the first time. Surprisingly, tridimensional (3D) RGO/V2O5 composite hydrogels cannot only be used as high-performance electromagnetic (EM) wave absorbents; they also exhibit excellent properties suitable for supercapacitor electrodes. The composites exhibit a maximum absorption of up to -21.5 dB. In particular, a composite hydrogel showed a bandwidth of 6.63 GHz, corresponding to a reflection loss at -10 dB, which opens the possibility for the use of 3D graphene with other functional nanomaterials as lightweight and high-performance EM wave absorption materials. Remarkably, the composite hydrogel is capable of delivering a high specific capacitance of about 320 F g(-1) at a current density of 1.0 A g(-1) .
多功能石墨烯水凝胶因其在实际应用中的巨大潜力而受到广泛关注。本文首次成功制备了含有还原氧化石墨烯纳米片(RGO)和 V2O5 纳米带(RGO/V2O5)的新型双功能复合水凝胶。令人惊讶的是,三维(3D)RGO/V2O5 复合水凝胶不仅可用作高性能电磁(EM)波吸收剂,而且还表现出适合超级电容器电极的优异性能。该复合材料的最大吸收值高达-21.5dB。特别是,复合水凝胶表现出 6.63GHz 的带宽,对应于-10dB 的反射损耗,这为使用具有其他功能纳米材料的 3D 石墨烯作为轻量级和高性能 EM 波吸收材料开辟了可能性。值得注意的是,该复合水凝胶在 1.0A/g 的电流密度下能够提供约 320F/g 的高比电容。
