Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a graphene composite including an ultrasonic-wave pulverization post-treatment process. The method includes radiating a microwave on a mixture of graphite oxide and a conducting agent, dispersing a resultant material, obtained during the radiating the microwave, in a liquid and performing ultrasonic-wave pulverization, and freeze-drying particles subjected to the ultrasonic-wave pulverization. The post-treatment process is added to the method of manufacturing the graphene composite including the reduced graphene oxide using the graphite oxide, thereby manufacturing a graphene composite having improved bindability with spherical activated carbon used to manufacture an active material. Further, the post-treated graphene composite is used to manufacture the active material and the supercapacitor, and accordingly, the active material can be thinly and densely applied to provide a supercapacitor having improved performance.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a flow-type energy storage device having an improved flow of fluid. The flow-type energy storage device stores electricity using a fluidic material, and includes a reaction region in which charge-discharge reaction of electricity is performed by the fluidic material, wherein the reaction region has an octagonal cross-section. The shape of the reaction region is controlled to thus improve the flowability of the fluidic material, thereby providing a flow-type energy storage device that has almost constant electrical properties even when a charging and discharging cycle is repeatedly performed. Further, the structures of an inlet and an outlet are not complicated and a separate part for controlling the flow of fluid is not used in the device, and accordingly, additional costs are not incurred during a process of manufacturing the flow-type energy storage device.
