Morphological and Interfacial Effects in Aramid-Graphene Composites for Structural Energy and Power
Abstract
Here in this project, the teams long-term goal is to intimately understand, predict, and verify the major factors toward enhancing energy and mechanical properties for structural capacitors and batteries. In this two-year project, the team investigated the following objectives that contributed to this goal. The objectives included: Micromechanically investigate morphological control for higher performance in capacitors, Experimentally quantify electrochemomechanical coupling for capacitors, Determine the significance of the interphase between the aramid nanofibers and reduced graphene oxide sheets, Demonstrate aramid nanofiber structural separators of controlled porosity for capacitors and batteries, and Tailor optimal combinations of mechanical and electrochemical performance by using Kevlar as the structural support.
