Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Graphite fluoride is a graphite intercalation compounds and used as lubricate and cathode material of primary battery. The graphite fluoride-lithium primary (GF-Li) battery has been commercially used because of its high energy density, excellent discharge performance, and low self-discharge property. The research representative found that the discharged GF-Li battery can be re-charged as new hybrid electrochemical capacitor (Graphite-fluoride Lithium Capacitor: GF-Li Cap.) In this project, the research representative succeeds in realizing the GF-Li Cap. with about 40 Wh L-1 volumetric energy density (normalized by the volume of negative and positive electrodes) and more than 1000 charge-discharge cycle-ability. Additionally, it has been revealed that the positive electrode (discharged graphite-fluoride electrode of GF-Li battery) is charge-discharged as capacitor electrode mainly by electrochemical desorption/adsorption of Li+ cation.
