However, graphene can be a better alternative material. This work presents a comprehensive ratio study of AC and Graphene Aerogel (GA) as the sole and composite electrodes. The material and facile-fabricated electrodes were characterized, and the electrochemical performances of the prototypes were correlated and discussed in terms of specific capacitance, internal resistances, cyclic performance, and self-discharge. It was found that 20% GA addition on the AC electrode (GA20 specimen) recorded the highest charge-discharge specific capacitance at 78.9 F/g, which was 4% higher than AC at 75.8 F/g, even though the estimated surface area for the electrode was 20% lower than the pure AC electrode. Further addition of GA wt% decreased the capacitance due to the lack of electrode surface area. The equivalent series resistance (ESR) increased with an increase in GA wt% due to the higher electronic resistance of GA material. AC electrode had the lowest self-discharge among all specimens, which was caused by the deeper ion storage inside the electrode’s pores. 2022-09-28T08:01:28Z 2022-09-28T08:01:28Z 2022-04 Article International Journal of Nanoelectronics and Materials, vol.15(2), 2022, pages 139-154 1985-5761 (Printed) 2232-1535 (online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/76246 http://ijneam.unimap.edu.my en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
