Boron-doped ordered mesoporous carbon (B-OMC) was synthesized using the aromatic compounds benzene, 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, 1,3,5-triethylbenzene and 1,3,5-triisopropylbenzene as expanding agents. The expanding mechanism as well as the effect of the expanding agent molecule on the properties of B-OMCs were studied. Compared with the unmodified one, the order of B-OMCs treated with aromatic compounds is improved significantly. In addition, along with the increase in hydrophobicity and steric hindrance of the expanding agents, the pore size and pore volume of B-OMCs increase, while their surface area and specific capacitance increase first, and then drop off slightly. The obtained B-OMC-TEB has a high boron content (1.54 wt%), the largest surface area (693 m g), a much better electrochemical performance and the highest specific capacitance (290 F g), 30% higher than that of ordinary B-OMC. Furthermore, the specific capacitance can be maintained at 155 F g even at a high current density of 20 A g, indicating that it has a high capacitance retention rate.
以芳香族化合物苯、1,3,5-三甲基苯、1,3,5-三乙基苯和1,3,5-三异丙基苯作为扩孔剂合成了硼掺杂有序介孔碳(B-OMC)。研究了扩孔机理以及扩孔剂分子对B-OMC性能的影响。与未改性的B-OMC相比,用芳香族化合物处理后的B-OMC的有序度显著提高。此外,随着扩孔剂疏水性和空间位阻的增加,B-OMC的孔径和孔体积增大,而其比表面积和比电容先增大,然后略有下降。所制备的B-OMC-TEB具有高硼含量(1.54 wt%)、最大比表面积(693 m²/g)、更好的电化学性能和最高比电容(290 F/g),比普通B-OMC高30%。此外,即使在20 A/g的高电流密度下,比电容仍可保持在155 F/g,表明其具有高电容保持率。
